Tickets useable on all trains?

Question

If I buy a ticket from my station to one "down the road", can I hop on any train that arrives that's going to stop there? (We have two companies running trains over the same route, one a local one and one Virgin Cross Country)

Answer 1

I suppose so my dad is a conductor so he will know but he's not here at the moment, but I'm pretty sure you can.

Answer 2

Yes the only time when you can't is if your buying from a specific company these are usually only for advanced or specially discounted tickets.

Answer 3

yes you can travel on any train. which runs on the same track.
