National Rail planner updated

[Mojo]

I normally use the Accessible UK Train Timetables, and realised it's changed format today, so looked at the National Rail site, which has also.

It has some new features, listed on this page http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/site_help/NewFeaturesOnlineJourneyPlanner.html. Hopefully it'll reduce some of the complaints about fare finding difficulties, but the fares system IMO is still in need of an overhaul.

Does this mean that from now on NRE won't be so slow that it won't physically load?

it wont even bring up a basic enquiry for me.

Just throws back the no valid option crap.

Try changing the time.

If you're using a young person's railcard:

Old system - Select 1 adult and 1 young person's railcard.

New system - Do the same, but click "add" to tell the system that this railcard will be used. You didn't have to click add with the old system, so why do you have to now?! Erk!!!

THere home page has gone naff though with layout...

Doesn't the railcard then stay there till removed?

the itineries take longer to read now, having it in text form rather than a table
