I assume there is any number of these, but there's a few I've personally noticed that probably wouldn't agree too much with the routing guide and all that jazz.
First off, a fairly low level one:
Birmingham to Hamstead during the evening (when there is only one stopper per hour), gives the option of catching the fast train to Tame Bridge and doubling back.
Another similar effort whilst looking for trains to Hope/Edale, it suggests getting the TPE fast train from Stockport to Sheffield, then getting the stopper back - this one I'm actually curious about, it cuts about 45 mins off the journey time, which would be incredibly useful and I think (could be wrong) I saw something about journeys to the Hope Valley being allowed to double back. Or am I imagining it?
Finally, checking to see if the 1932 from Hamstead to Rugeley connects to the Crewe train at the other end. I put in Hamstead to Stoke on Trent, via Rugeley - one of the suggestions:
Hamstead - Tame Bridge - Rugeley Trent Valley - Walsall - Wolverhampton - Stoke
Anyone else noticed odd suggestions whilst planning their journeys online?
