Can I travel on an earlier train than the one I have booked?

If the ticket has the date/time of travel on it then the answer is NO. Its even worse if it has the carriage/seat number because that is the only seat you can sit in.
I often buy the most restricted ticket for maximum savings that allows me to travel on just one train at a set time but I just sit on any unreserved seat even though I have reserved seat and carriage number. The guard has never questioned why I am not sitting in my designated seat.0
