Journey Planner Problem?

[snail]

I have been trying to book a return from Manchester to Lancaster, out today back Monday morning. When I have done this previously I have bought an Off Peak return (SVR) for £20.90. I still have the last ticket which has restriction code B5. According to brfares this is valid on any train for the return.

None of the online sites I've tried today - including NRE - will give me a return option before 0846, which appears to be using the outward restriction of no travel before 0829.

It is confused by TPE having their own version which is restricted both ways but I don't want the TPE only ticket.

Does anyone know if B5 has changed recently?

Where are you looking at the restriction code?

Both BR Fares and NRE show the time restriction applying to both outward and return journeys.

Thanks. I obviously missed the detail and just read RETURN BY ANY TRAIN literally. It has changed recently then.
