Removal of time expired easements
700628: During engineering works over the weekend of the 14 and 15 May 2016,
tickets on fare route 00063 VIA NEWBURY to the West Country will be valid on
journeys via Swindon. This easement applies in both directions.
700630: Journeys to and via London Marylebone on fare routes AP EVESHAM
(00402); CHILTERN & CONNECTIONS (00402); LONDON EVESHAM (00799); EVESHAM/
STROUD (00803) and VIA EVESHAM (00805) are not permitted to travel via Oxford
and Oxford Parkway. This negative easement applies in both directions.
700628 only applied in 2016.
Removing 700630 means that (say) a Brighton-Hereford "via Evesham" ticket is now valid via Oxford Parkway.
Easement 700598 is now the only easement I can see which refers to the Marylebone-Bicester-Oxford route, and that has already expired.
In addition to the above, easement 700676 has been amended. It now reads:
700676 (Map) On the weekends of the 04/05 and 11/12 February 2017, East Coast services are routed (without stopping) via Hitchin, Cambridge and Ely. To ensure journeys beyond Kings Cross are shown in Journey Planners, (where map permissions do not currently include links between Hitchin and Cambridge); this temporary map easement will operate in both directions.
Previously, it only affected the 04 and 05 February 2017. If you're going between Peterborough and London then, need to change trains during your journey, and wish to book online, entering St. Pancras as your destination rather than Kings Cross may enable some web sites to show through fares.

Dataset RJRG0446 published 12 January 2017
Impact Assessment - comparing revision 'IBRG0446' to original 'IBRG0445'
To create links between Sheffield and Leeds used routinely as diversions via
Barnsley map amended
Map PY - PLYMOUTH TO YORK changed (3 added links)
The new map definition has not yet been uploaded, although the map already includes some routes via Barnsley.
New easements
700691: Holders of season tickets from origin Sheffield to Attenborough;
Beeston or Nottingham may travel via Derby. This map easement applies in both
directions
There was validity on a couple of routes via Derby until the NB map was amended in November (although easement 700102 prevents someone from travelling from Sheffield to or via Nottingham from going via East Midlands Parkway). If you are using a single or return ticket,
nationalrail.co.uk only lists Sheffield-Attenborough as being valid via Derby.
700692: Due to engineering works Cross Country services are diverted via
Newport (South Wales) on Sunday 19 February 2017. This map easement will
create temporary permitted routes between the West Country and West Midlands
and will apply in both directions.
The easement doesn't say anything about which routes are permitted, so this may be left to the traveller to decide.
Out of date easement(s) removed
700598: Following the introduction of the Chiltern services from Oxford
Parkway to London Marylebone,and until Chiltern operate direct through
services from Oxford to London; tickets on Fare route 00000 Any Permitted from
or via Oxford to London or beyond will not be valid on the new services via
High Wycombe and will remain valid only via Reading. This negative circuitous
route easement will apply in both directions.
Out of date, as stated.
Change to easement text
700676: On the weekends of the 04/05 and 11/12 February 2017, East Coast
services are routed (without stopping) via Hitchin, Cambridge and Ely. To
ensure journeys beyond Kings Cross are shown in Journey Planners, (where map
permissions do not currently include links between Hitchin and Cambridge);
this temporary map easement will operate in both directions.
The text now include "to and" before "beyond Kings Cross", so that it's easier to book (say) a Grimsby-London ticket on those dates.
