Has Trainsplit version 1 been disabled? I'm getting repeated error messages.
No worries, I'm using the new version now, but I just wondered.
I entered 1st August Hereford to Crewe departing 1300, returning 1500. The itinerary only allows 40 minutes at Crewe (enough for our purposes!) so perhaps that confuses the system. Managed to book Advance tickets on the 1308 and 1508 on VTEC so it seems to be a glitch on TrainSplit.
It finds trains on the new version but at £22.55 for two off peak day returns (with railcard), splitting at Shrewsbury, whereas I can get two through Advances for £21.80 on VTEC (£19.15 total when I grabbed the last £8.25 1508 CRE-HFD).
Curious. Unless I'm doing something wrong again...

Cheers Nick. Are you going to run the two sites in tandem then? Or will v.2 replace v.1 eventually?
The email examples are all advanced purchase fares but I assume those are easier to highlight in an email and describe. Rather than split ticket fares, which is where the value of the site is really realised to those wishing to split and save.I was meaning the examples illustrated in the email, which I must admit I only glanced at.
I can't find these.Thanks. I paid £10 for an advance return.
Valid for return travel on the same day departing after 2pm.
Not true. The ticket type AVR when originally introduced a couple of months ago was indeed an Advance Return. The booking conditions seem to have been simplified now so that, while it still requires booking in advance, it no longer requires reservations to be made. It is still quite an oddity though.Advance returns don't exist.

London to typical holiday destinations in Kent, at least.What flows are "Advance Return" AVR tickets available on?

Yes! When originally reduced, in April or so (for sale on summer dates), it really was an advance fare: the ticket name as printed on the ticket was "Advance Return" and there was a requirement for a reservation to be made on both journeys. On 11th June the requirement for reservations was removed (but the advance booking requirement kept), and the ticket name changed to "Promotional Return".OK, so AVR appears to be a new ticket type for Southeastern's "Summer Hidden Gems" promotion - i.e. the very ticket type which is being discussed here, no?
Hey there. This train split site is great! I have saved a ton so far. When is the Apple app coming? Will it also be available on Google Play as well?
Thanks for that. The Google app will be first up, followed by the iOS one. Expect it soon - it just takes a while to get these things accredited.
