Initial impression is that you would claim from TPE for both journeys, out and back, in their entirety. However, we would need to know the scheduled times for each leg of each journey and the actual times at each change; provided you complied with minimum connecting times the claims will be valid.

It is on the return journey. I'm sure more knowledgeable folks will be along soon to confirm or deny this but it seems that once you have left Euston whilst adhering to any time restriction from there you are, effectively, free to stop wherever you please en route for as long as you like within...

I used the forum's site to request a journey from New Eltham to Oxford without splits specifying a via point of Woolwich Elizabeth line and it offered the Anytime single straight away. Changes at Lewisham, Canary Wharf, Woolwich and Paddington.

I may just have been unlucky and I should point out that my comment really only refers to Edinburgh services; on those occasions where I've been on the Leeds services things have been more pleasant. However, to add to my displeasure, although the Avanti refurb has, in my opinion, made the seats...

100% this. Neither would I and I am now restricted to Avanti as LNER's first is too often full to the rafters and noisy as a result. Fortunately, Avanti's offer is very good and the staff are unfailingly excellent

'Evaluation' - spits out my good Scotch darn it!

New Eltham to Oxford via Woolwich is on a permitted route and, obviously, starting short on an Anytime single is fine so you're good to go.

Good shout. Also consider http://www.railrover.org/pages/coast-and-peaks-rover.html at £96.80 for any 4 days within an 8 day period. It covers all of your travel plus quite a bit more if you are so inclined.

0802 from Glasgow southbound, can't remember the other times. 1630 from Euston northbound, 1900 from Preston, arrive Motherwell 2056 and Glasgow Central 2112. Monday, Wednesday and Friday only and it was timetabled; caught it northbound from Preston many times.

I don't see how this covers the last leg from Shrewsbury to Chester as you would be using part of the outward ticket after the return which is not permitted; indeed it seems to mean two valid tickets would be held for Chester to Manchester. The forum's site suggests a multi split journey for...

Why not take a CS seat to Glasgow, stay in a (relatively) inexpensive hotel and take an early Avanti to Crewe?

But first class leading on arrival at Haymarket as described above is at the south end so there must be some other explanation.

See above, buy from Elephant, London bridge or Blackfriars.

Pedant alert, you mean Blackadder I believe.

I had to laugh. Pic of display stating no train service next to train in service at platform.

Agreed. At Leighton Buzzard watching all the fasts go by with no information apart from what's been gleaned from Traksy which seems to show that LNW have effectively given up southbound even though the problem is cleared. And this was already a divert to avoid the line closure between Luton and...

I concur with this opinion.

Also, on the forum's site, you can specify a maximum of 1 change which should do it.

It is not 'for free', it is either 'free' or 'for nothing'. The use of the phrase 'eye watering' when something just isn't.
