(09 Mar 2015, 7:45 pm)Tommy_1581 I thought it was £1.20?

Is that £1.10 CAT, valid on bus, metro and rail?

If so, I'm going to bloody murder Nexus.

(09 Mar 2015, 7:50 pm)Dan £1.10 - all bus operations in Tyne & Wear, and also covers Metro and Ferry. Additionally covers Northern Rail trains Sunderland - Blaydon.

(09 Mar 2015, 7:57 pm)Davie Lee got told you can't use the, on Northern Rail services

(09 Mar 2015, 8:03 pm)MarcTheA4 All of this uncertainty regarding Explorers on rail travel is what really puts me off using the train to add a bit of spice to my reviews.

(09 Mar 2015, 7:42 pm)aureolin Isn't the £1.10 CAT valid on the Northern Rail service? I'd thought the validity was the same as a Day Rover? 

(09 Mar 2015, 8:04 pm)aureolin Don't let it put you off, and don't be afraid to challenge it. I've just pointed out that I'd be happy to browse to the Nexus website, and show where it says it's valid, and there's nowt more said on the matter...

(09 Mar 2015, 8:07 pm)MarcTheA4 Thanks, aureolin.

I just generally doing like to challenge things. Despite desperately wanting to challenge authority at school where it has been abused, I can never bring myself to do it.

(09 Mar 2015, 8:11 pm)aureolin I'll probably be doing the trip on Saturday (with a Day Rover - yes I'm actually going to do a day out!). Feel free to give me a shout if you're bothered about getting a bit grief by using one, but I can assure you that it's unlikely you will!

(09 Mar 2015, 8:14 pm)Dan Can't recall having ever had grief off NR staff for using a £1.10 Nexus CAT to the Metrocentre.

Have seen a Day Rover or Explorer being issued before on a train, too.

(09 Mar 2015, 8:09 pm)Tom Well I've used it from Metrocentre many times... 

(09 Mar 2015, 8:09 pm)aureolin Not according to the National Rail Enquiries website: http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/times_fares/prc40d89df4d450aad92148949bd3e52.aspx
