Also reminds me to ask again about getting standard premium integrated a bit better with everything else - I appreciate it's already on your radar but may as well put in another nudge. Since by happenstance I am booking it along with standard class tickets to/from Hexham that are coincidentally close to or bang on the minimum connection time it may be useful to have a through itinerary if my connection were a couple of minutes late. Plus the use case of wanting to search "first/standard premium" when you're in a position like I am pick between WCML/ECML.
In terms of an update on this one, our supplier has done the work needed, it's now waiting on me to do some implementation work (unfortunately I'm very busy at the moment!), then our frontends will have to do some work to support it too

Just booked a return trip which amongst other legs involved the 14:55 from Carlisle. The seat selector showing that car J was standard premium, but on selecting it none of the seats were actually selectable, it being first class for that journey in practice I think.
Hmm, I can't remember exactly how this logic works, will have to have a look tomorrow

Hi all, hope you’re all well.

Forgive me if I am missing something obvious but I don’t know why the Redhill restriction is showing against this ticket when the itinerary is for a direct train between Tonbridge and London Bridge.

There is a diverted route on that day but surely it’s not via Redhill ?

Many thanks.

Ok, thanks, so the Redhill restriction will be printed on the ticket ? If so I’ll get a different ticket. Thanks.
It will and it's completely valid to use, because train will run via Redhill. I'm not sure why you'd want to get another more expensive ticket?

I want the flexibility of the Victoria route for the return. I should have looked up the route of the London Bridge option before posting. I just didn’t think it was possible to do it in 48 minutes. Thanks Mr Jeeves for your help.
