Multiple site travel for a single client, can I invoice for this?

"What can I claim?" is the wrong approach. Do you think Accenture approach their clients concerning expenses like that? The correct approach is to state that you want to charge on top of your rate for expenses incurred while travelling to the various client sites. Alternatively, if they insist that your rate is inclusive of expenses, you insist that your rate must then be higher than originally agreed. Be armed with reasonable arguments.

Travel to all client sites and first class rail is perfectly acceptable. If I go anywhere on business, even if my ltdco is paying for it, I go 1st class. (One time I was regularly travelling from Birmingham Airport to Leamington Spa - the first class ticket was twice as much as the second class, but included a bacon sarnie, a coffee and a newspaper, so overall was cheaper).

You've quoted something I didn't say, appreciate the help though. I'll see what the agency come back with and then go from there.

I just emailed the agent to find out what I am able to claim.

This is a quote:

..I just emailed the agent to find out what I am able to claim...

The "What can I claim?" in quotation marks is an indication of the approach, not quoting you. But it's not far from what you did post.
