   Depends whose rules.  Guiness does not require a single fare, probably   
   because the London challenge doesn't either.  (I don't think you can   
   do London in one fare.)   
      
   The Rapid Transit Challenge requires a single fare, and has three   
   kinds of rides depending on whether you stop at all stations or just   
   pass through them, and whether you have to cover all lines:
