Further to the thread about Doncaster to London fares, does anybody know why there are two sets of "Any Permitted" fares from Wymondham to Ely. See:

One is priced by East Midlands Trains and the other by Greater Anglia. The prices and restrictions are slightly different for each.
I tried a dummy booking via the Greater Anglia website and both were offered on all appropriate trains.
EMT provide a rather limited service from Wymondham so I guess their fares are a historical thing, dating back before the Anglia/One/NXEA/GA service was established.
It seems odd to have two sets of (seemingly) permanent fares set by different operators on a flow.
