As an example, if you had an advance ticket on the 1609 Wigan - Euston and then an advance on the 1903 Paddington - Penzance would you be allowed to get the 1509 if the 1609 was cancelled?
Arguably the next available service is the 1628 but that would not give you time to make the connection - nor would the 1709.
Since the 1903 is the last penzance service (other than the night sleeper) waiting for a later train it would mean you would not get home that night.
If you knew in advance the 1609 was cancelled, could you use your ticket on the 1509 which would seem to most like a sensible solution.
I had a similar situation a few weeks ago and kicked myself that I hadnt checked to see if the train was cancelled earlier - but then I was thinking it might not have made any difference even if I knew.
