Please let me know if I understand this correctly. I can buy an advance ticket on the TfW website for another operators service, for example Northern Railway, and change it to a different train for fare difference but no fees?

Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Looking at fares between Manchester Airport and Blackpool North and seeing that the restriction code says that all trains are off-peak regardless of the time of day. Does this mean that using a Two Together rail card that can only be used on off-peak trains can be used any time of the day on...

The cancelled trains have left the station now. Nobody to ask.
