And on this Network Railcard page, the 'easement list' linked to at the top of the page (dated November 2022) is a different file to that linked to at the bottom (which is dated December 2022).
Thanks both. I will suggest going down the Delay Repay route. The actual arrival at St Pancras was 1641 (vs originally planned arriving at KGX of 1541) so that should just about tip over the 60 minute threshold for GC@s delay repay.
My other half held an Advance ticket for the 1346 GC service from York to Kings Cross today (25th June).
Due to (apparently long planned) engineering works there were no GC trains running all day.
Notwithstanding the poor showing re: lack of communication about the cancellation of all GC...
Was this to do with the 377s needing to lock on to a GPS signal to confirm the train was at a station where the doors could be opened, but due to Victoria being covered there was some workaround that took a small amount of time to reset/spoof a GPS signal to convince the train it was at a valid...
In my experience (iOS version), it does allow you to take/save a screenshot but shows a warning message telling you in no uncertain terms a screenshot is not valid, and the Railcard is only valid when displayed from within the app.
This looks to have been flagged in Go-Ahead's annual accounts for year ended 27 June 2020, announced in September 2020. So looks like DfT/LSER have been aware of it for at least 18 months.
The DfT have announced a consultation on plans to formally close Newhaven Marine:

Expiry is 2 months for SWR's carnets.
Looked into it for my partner (who has a part-time commute to London from Ashtead/Leatherhead), but these are the handful of stations where SWR's smartcard (and therefore carnets) is not valid (you are expected to use Southern's key smartcard); even though...
The HEx conditions of carriage states that "advance tickets cannot be used in conjunction with Railcards" (section 3.3).
Yet their own site sells "fixed day" tickets that allows railcard discounts to be applied. "Fixed day" tickets do not seem to be defined or mentioned in their CoC.
Guildford - Epsom via Dorking isn't a mapped route (and shows as requiring multiple tickets on NRE), and there is nothing on SWR's site suggesting that tickets will be accepted on GWR that way. Similarly there doesn't apear to be any ticket acceptance on the 479 bus that runs between the two.
Although the report stating that there was only "a sole passenger" on board at the time doesn't exactly present the line as being a vital infrastructure depended on by hundreds each day...!
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
