Easement 300227 does say: 300227 (Fare route) Journeys routed Taunton may travel via Yeovil Junction. This easement applies in both directions. The data for that easement is a bit different in that it only lets retailers make use of the easement on weekends, and only for itineraries which...

Some changes were published in the routeing guide yesterday. Changes from 16 Jul 2025 (580) to 23 Jul 2025 (581). Easement changes: Removed: 701336 (Fare route) During engineering closures 3 - 5 May 2025, customers travelling from Ledbury, Colwall, Great Malvern, Malvern Link, Worcester...

Maybe, maybe not. What I'd say is that someone who doesn't anticipate saving £10 from having an Oyster card (or, at least, not saving that much within a reasonable period of time) isn't going to lose too much by not getting one. Do you happen to know if there's an announcement about the price...

For what it's worth, nre.co.uk currently shows London-Nuneaton-Leicester as being valid with an "any permitted" ticket (link*), and I had no trouble clicking through to EMR.. * You may need to delete any nationalrail.co.uk cookies you have for the link to open correctly.

Some changes were published in the routeing guide on Wednesday. Changes from 03 Jul 2025 (578) to 09 Jul 2025 (579). Added: 701375 (Map) During engineering works between Worcester Shrub Hill and Moreton-in-Marsh from 18th and 24th August, passengers with walk-up tickets travelling from...

Easement 700070 may be more helpful here. I don't know what the cheapest option is, but I suspect it may depend on who you ask.

The following changes were published in the routeing guide on Thursday: Changes from 27 Jun 2025 (577) to 03 Jul 2025 (578). Easement changes: Added: 701373 (Map) During engineering works between Worcester Shrub Hill and Moreton-in-Marsh from 18th and 24th August, passengers with walk-up...

Some changes were published in the routeing guide yesterday. Changes from 23 Jun 2025 (575) to 25 Jun 2025 (576). Easement changes: Removed: 701310 (Map) During the closure of the Severn Tunnel from 09 to 14 June and 16 to 20 June 2025, tickets to South Wales will be diverted via Gloucester...

The "Ethnicity" dropdown on the EMR form is a bit odd. It's mandatory, and has options of "Asian or Asian British", "Black, Black British, Caribbean or African", "Mixed or multiple ethnic groups" and "White". I suppose the third option will have to double up as "Other". Northern's page doesn't...

Two sets of changes have been made to the routeing guide so far this week. The following changes were published on Wednesday: Changes from 12 Jun 2025 (571) to 18 Jun 2025 (572). Removed: 701359 (Map) On Sunday 15th June 2025, passengers travelling on Great Western services whose journey...

Doncaster-Selby validity via York (using the DO map) was removed on 4/5/2017. There used to be an easement (easement 700157) which stopped Doncaster-Selby tickets with the "direct" route code from being used that way. I don't know when the journey was valid on a straightforward route via Leeds...

There's nothing about level crossings in that announcement, but a recent BBC article says Network Rail plan to change that one later this year. It says: There is a level crossing in Weston Rhyn (link), but the one Network Rail were concerned about is nearer to Chirk, with a footpath to Chirk...

Thanks, that sounds logical. The one evening train which terminates in platform 3 also has a connection to a train to Chester. The other two trains terminate in Wrexham Central. If they use Shrewsbury guards, there couldn't be a cross-platform connection for those whatever they did.

Now the 197s have gone, the trains for the line all spend the night in Birkenhead (or Wrexham?) rather than Chester or Crewe or wherever, but the first trains of the day still start from Wrexham General platform 3. Does anyone know if there's anything to stop them using platform 4 instead? 4...

The retailers use different algorithms to choose which itineraries to offer the customer, and different algorithms to work out which tickets are valid on them. While they may come up with the same results in many cases, you shouldn't be too surprised when they don't. In this case, you said that...

Some changes were published in the routeing guide yesterday. Changes from 06 Jun 2025 (570) to 12 Jun 2025 (571). The data for easement 701318 has been changed so that it no longer applies to journeys from, to or via Crewe or Stoke-on-Trent. Someone who (say) plans to travel between Crewe and...

The problem is, I sispect that the "any permitted" ticket doesn't have a cross-London marker (✠), so you may struggle to find an itinerary which goes via London. I haven't looked in detail, but I can't see anything obvious which would stop the route from being vaild. I don't know what you mean...

Some changes were made to the routeing guide last week. Sorry about the delay. Last Monday, the following changes were made: Changes from 30 May 2025 (567) to 02 Jun 2025 (568). Easement changes: Added: 701361 (Map) On Sunday 15th June 2025, passengers travelling on Great Western services...

Some changes were made to the routeing guide data this afternoon. Changes from 28 May 2025 (566) to 30 May 2025 (567). The data for easement 701359 was changed today (it also changed on Wednesday, but I presume GWR weren't satisfied with that version). It remains a map easement for a Sunday...

This subthread doesn't have much to do with what's valid and what isn't. I wouldn't look at the distances in the routeing data for that, and the NRT distance table doesn't include a Croy–Camelon link. My concern was that, where there is more than one common routeing point, retailers reject some...
