Can you pay half of train ticket over the internet and the other half on the day the train leaves.

Question

if i want to pay half on my card today and the rest on the day the train leaves by cash would that be possible.

Answer 1

If you're referring to Amtrak (for travel in the US), no.  You have to pay the full amount when you purchase the tickets.

Answer 2

You can't in the UK. There is no provision for deferred payments

Answer 3

No in the UK but could purchase a single ticket on line and the return journey  pay as you travel at either booking office or off the conductor  on rural routes another way buy part of your journey on line ,the other leg of the journey purchase ticket at booking hall ,this is ok if on a line with a regular headway  but you would not want a six or more hours waiting the next train  to continue on your way
