Moderator note: Split from Routeing Guide Updates
I think it's time for a complete change in how the Routeing Guide works. I get bored of "you can't go that way so ner", but I do understand and respect that TOCs don't like things that muck with pricing for niche requirements.
An option would be to let TOCs price each bit how they like, and you buy a ticket that combines the legs to a through ticket via any route you like, yes, even, say, Penzance to Dover Priory via Wick. Effectively mandatory split ticketing.
