Although not an official site, Trains Can Be Cheaper will do that for you.

http://www.bukitlawang.com/routes/routes.aspx will show you the shortest route and those no more than 3 miles longer which will be permitted routes - but obviously this won't show up every permitted route that's longer than this

Perhaps the OP wants something that is actually useable though?

Reference to half a dozen appendicees, a gazillion maps, and all written in gobbledegook to boot!

What happened to the electronic version? Click on two stations and get all the valid routes between the two highlighted? Select a ticket and get all the valid routes highlighted?

But is no longer being actively maintained/updated as the forum member who created it has a far bigger project to manage at present

And this bigger project is? I would like to guess working with ATOC/National Rail to actually create a sensible routeing guide?!

It's a bit of a rubbish situation really. You intend on spending your money on a ticket and would like to know exactly that ticket entitles you to. Staff generally can't/won't help to give you a list of routes you may take. If you endeavour to check yourself and use the National Routeing Guide, your findings are subject to a check of National Rail Enquires, which is not set up to verify the validity of tickets!

For example, if I want to find out for a customer, or myself, which routes can be taken on a Canterbury West to Ockendon routed "Tilbury&Gravesnd," it's not possible. Southeastern got Atos to rig the journey planner in August last year to ban any routes passing through Northfleet. A similar rig was put in place to ban routes passing through the Stratford Group. These days, neither RJIS nor NRE can produce any routes at all for the ticket!

I think it's one of those situations which is being left as it is until such a time that either a solution becomes available, or it becomes a significant problem. In the meantime, if you want to find out what the ticket you have purchased entitles you to, it's not going to happen!
