LOCAL FARES AND REGULATIONS

Local fares will be charged as hereinafter specified, and the provisions of regulations 32 to 36 inclusive shall have full force and effect notwithstanding anything contained in the previous regulations respecting passengers.

32. Local Fares: General

Availability—1. Single and return tickets at the local fares specified in regulations 33, 34, 35, and 36 are available for one calendar month, except that such tickets issued between two stations on separate sections of railway and which necessitate a sea journey are available for three calendar months.

  1. In each case under the preceding paragraph the period of availability shall begin on the day following the date shown on the tickets.

  2. The journey may be commenced on the date shown on the ticket or at any time within the period of the availability of the ticket, and must be completed before the expiry of such period.

  3. Break of Journey—Except in cases where break of journey is necessitated by the train service, single or return tickets at local fares will not be available for break of journey.

Suburban Six-trip Bearer Tickets—5. Suburban trip bearer tickets, second class, available for six single journeys, will be issued for travel as specified in regulations 33, 34, 35, and 36.

  1. Suburban trip bearer tickets will also be issued for travel between intermediate stations located within the points specified in paragraph 6. The charge for tickets so issued will be that applicable to the shortest journey authorised in paragraph 6 within the limits of which the intermediate journey is made.

Example: Let A, B, C, and D be stations in that order on a continuous line of railway with suburban six-trip bearer tickets issuable from A to B, C, and D, and vice versa. The charge for a six-trip ticket from C to B would be the same as from C to A.
