Unlimited travel for one day with weekday time restrictions between Moreton-in-Marsh and Oxford; between Ashchurch for Tewkesbury and Yate; and between Gloucester and Swindon via Stroud - these lines are obviously not all connected.
The ticket is also valid and can be bought from "Johnson’s Excelbus" and "Stagecoach" buses within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which connects the two separate rail lines. The area extends as far north as Stratford-upon-Avon but only by bus.

Cam & Dursley; Charlbury; Cheltenham Spa; Combe

Northern Ticket Vending Machines now sell most ranger and rover tickets but at the moment only for same-day travel (rather prohibitive for distant areas)
Some Avanti West Coast station TVMs for example Crewe, now sell local rangers and rovers.
LNER TVMs at Doncaster, Edinburgh, London Kings Cross, Newcastle and York also sell them.
A number of PTE areas sell local rangers from TVMs in their area e.g. South Yorkshire, Strathclyde and West Midlands
* valid ticket to travel is required unless boarded at a station without ticket-issuing facilities
