Hi Guys,

I'm sure you know the .xml file that contains the valid routes between a given starting CRS code and London Terminals.
Last file is: ltm_v1.4_170729.xml

If I search for Epsom to London Waterloo (season ticket), I can find fares to London Terminals. However, on most providers' website I can find this route: Also valid for travel to or from Epsom or Tattenham Corner. This route's code is: 40108

This route code cannot be found in the xml, so I assume you can't buy this ticket.

Providers where you can find it:

However you cannot find it on Nationalrail's site.

Who is correct? Or what is happening here? It seems to me they're are ignoring the file, or I am missing something.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Bertalan

Hi Bertalan,

I think that route code is in the data for Epsom Downs (EPD):

        <LondonTerminalMapping>
          <LondonTerminals>
            <Terminal>BFR</Terminal>
            <Terminal>CHX</Terminal>
            <Terminal>CST</Terminal>
            <Terminal>CTK</Terminal>
            <Terminal>LBG</Terminal>
            <Terminal>VIC</Terminal>
            <Terminal>VXH</Terminal>
            <Terminal>WAE</Terminal>
            <Terminal>WAT</Terminal>
          </LondonTerminals>
          <StartDate>2014-07-29</StartDate>
          <EndDate>2999-12-31</EndDate>
          <FareRoute>40108</FareRoute>
        </LondonTerminalMapping>

Cheers,

Linus

Hi Linus,

Thank you for the quick response. However, it doesn't really help me. I am talking about Epsom (surrey), EPS, and not Epsom Downs, EDS. 
Is there something I am missing? I might be interpreting the xml file wrong.
So, what do you think, EPS -> WAT route 40108 should be there or not?

Thanks.

Bertalan

In that case it looks like it is missing from the data. I don't know how the other sites would have made it work.
