Rail fares

Wouldn't happen - you need to change stations to continue the journey and walk next door to St Pancras.

Even more bizarre is the realm of split ticketing where you book two or more tickets rather than buying one for your journey. You still travel on the same train without any changes to the normal journey.

For example: Instead of buying a single ticket from Leeds to Glasgow for £120.00, you can save over 50% by buying split tickets from Leeds to Bingley, Bingley to Motherwell, and Motherwell to Glasgow for a total of £53.70. You stay on the same train and don’t have to make additional changes. All perfectly legal but a weird way to run a railway.
