Our new ticketing site is now live! Using either this or the original site (both powered by TrainSplit) helps support the running of the forum with every ticket purchase! Find out more and ask any questions/give us feedback in this thread!
I would say yes. You can rely on the itinerary to show it’s valid via Haddenham and you can then rely on the properties of the ticket (off peak return Oxford-Leamington Spa) which:-
(a) does not require you to travel on a specific train or trains;
(b) allows you to travel any time on a Sunday...
When that's happened to me ( (an unplanned diversion via Lewes ) the PIS didn't update and continued to show the d-class message in the loop on the screens in what was now the front of the train.

They certainly have done so in the recent-ish past during disruption. Maybe only a...
Thanks - that's an interesting point. When I last discussed this with a journey planner developer ( a long time ago!) the consensus seemed to be that only routeing points/group members passed through needed to be considered - I'll need to have a further think! If the OP follows the advice...
Perhaps I'm missing something. Agreed that it's not the shortest route nor a direct train.
However, as far as I can see it is a mapped route on SM.
The journey via Haddenham doesn't pass through Princes Risborough so the absence of a map link between the two is irrelevant.
The journey goes...
Trainsplit and Silverrail (I tried Chiltern) will both offer an Oxford-Leamington off peak single via Haddenham. ( For Trainsplit, that's with splits turned off - offering the split at Banbury definitely looks iffy - as noted in above .)
Is there a reason why you think it isn't valid via...
I think it should be. I would recommend buying your ticket with an itinerary from the forum site ( turning off splits, specifying via Haddenham for the outward leg and buying a ticket that allows break of journey - e.g. https://www.brfares.com/!faredetail?orig=OXF&dest=LMS&rte=267&tkt=SVR .)...
That's right. The link on map SM between Oxford and Banbury Group covers the direct route and also via Haddenham ( as that doesn't pass through any other routeing point.)
Easement 700913 doesn't apply for Oxford-Leamington Journeys as the destination isn't Banbury or Kings Sutton. ( This would...
That is broadly true. The only exception I can think of is that easements affecting routeing can be tied to specific service IDs and so will be time dependant. 600080 is an example - "Customers holding tickets routed NOT DARLINGTON may travel via Darlington using specific train UIDs (Y23904...
It looked far better when the full Daniel Buren colour scheme was applied ( "Comme tombées du ciel, les couleurs in situ et en mouvement." - https://danielburen.com/images/exhibit/2961 )
That looked good even in typical Wallonian weather.
That's good to know - is that documented officially anywhere?
I looked at seat61 ...
https://www.seat61.com/interrail-and-eurail-reservations.htm
... and searched for "quota"
As far as I can see it says that there are quotas for Interrail/Eurail for TGV France-Italy, TGV France-Spain, TGV...
It's already happened I think. Certainly they're in the railplanner app for today.

Will be interesting to see how much Interrail availability there is.

... all give you mapped routes over the Settle-Carlisle line travelling via Nottingham,Sheffield and Leeds. The shortest route (which goes via Worksop ) also runs over the S-C.
I had a similar reaction at first but once I'd recalibrated I thought the Nürnberg site was really good. I'm guessing that to fill the gap you might need to take in the other DB Museum sites.
You could also add in unintelligible/inaudible announcements.
I've almost been caught out at St Pancras HL before.
But, apparently, some people think it's *always* the passengers fault. ( No doubt sometimes it is.)
Harold Wood is the first station you reach inside Z6. Cambridge to Harold Wood is mapped via Ipswich on EA.

NLR were part of my backup commute in the early mid-90s - it definitely had a separate (post-NSE and pre-Siliverlink) branding - purple and green come to mind.
