Title: No fare valid on train Post by: Btline on December 21, 2011, 21:30:10 I have just seen this and it has me flummoxed. On East Coast website.
Kidderminster to Manchester Pic; out 31st Dec, return 1st Jan On the return leg, most of the services have no fare valid for that train. Does that make them free? Is an off peak return valid on them? Doing a search from Worcester - Manchester has no problems. What's going on?

NYE and NYD are both at the weekend so no restrictions on off peak tickets.

I assume that an Off Peak return KID - MAN will simply be valid on any return train within a month (after 0930). I want to book on EC to get points! :P This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
