Fares for distances exceeding 700 miles will be computed by adding to the fare for 700 miles
the ordinary fare (section 2) for the additional mileage involved.

  1. Availability—Tickets at ordinary fares (section 2) will have unlimited availability.

  2. Break of Journey—Except in cases where break of journey is necessitated by the train
    service, single tickets for distances of 10 miles and under will not be available for break of
    journey. Passengers holding ordinary tickets for distances over 10 miles may break the journey
    at any station at which the train is timed to stop, after travelling 10 miles from the original
    starting station: Provided that in the case of intersection bookings which necessitate a sea jour-
    ney between the North and South Islands, the rail journey may, after the completion of the
    sea journey, be broken at Christchurch.

  3. Return Journeys—The fare for a return journey will be double the single fare.
