Not anywhere I've bought a rail ticket.
"Return" means normal month return.
"Day return" ronseal.
Anything more specialised would also be spelled out in full, and the ticket staff also check your intended travel times when you're on a route where that affects the price.

Thankyou...
...for seeing my point. It seems several people don't. Including the ticket inspectors on the return who made me buy another ticket at full price.

spanner + works.
as a regular traveller by rail, a request for a return is always a day return, if a month return is required it should be asked for.

However I fully conquer with your hatred of rail staff. Which is precisely the reason I refuse to pay for rail travel whenever possible.

Not a hatred...
...of rail staff. That'd be unfair. Just a hatred of the whole bloody experience of rail travel - being fleeced, receiving shit service, and then - in this instance - some jobsworth charging you a huge penalty fare for what is quite clearly an honest and understandable mistake.

The point I was trying to make about the assaults on rail staff is that the reason it happens, unfortunately, is often that the experience of rail travel leaves even many rational people irate - never mind what it's going to do to people who are normally only a hair's breadth from punching someone...

Unfortunate typo?
I looked at that for ages before I think I understood what you were trying to say. Concur, not conquer.

I really thought you were trying to argue with the chap, rather than agree with him.
