Glasgow - London Terminals Off Peak Return - Routing

[Furrball]

I note this ticket restriction has changed as per title.

IIRC there was previously 2 any permitted fares, one slightly more expensive by about £2.

Is this change part of the fare simplification process?

Based on restrictions I assume ticket would be valid on direct WCML services, travel via Edinburgh and ECML and even MML via Derby and onwards?

Do you mean it has changed from the fares change date on 2 January 2019?

 

[Furrball]

Nope, seems to be as of now.

Still 3A http://www.brfares.com/#!fares?orig=0433&dest=1072 and still one via York available

Your link doesnt show anything

You might want to update the title then. Your title says "Glasgow to London Terminals", but the example you have just given is from London Euston to Glasgow Central.

For what it's worth it's 3A from Glasgow to London, hence my question.

I can't see how there might once have been two Any Permitted fares between the same locations. Maybe you are thinking of the "Virgin Trains only" one on this route which is a pound or two cheaper than the Any Permitted?

Anyway, to answer your question, the Any Permitted Glasgow to London (and vice versa) is indeed valid via Edinburgh and the east coast; via Settle, Leeds and the midland mainline; and via a number of other places (like Birmingham).

So it is, apologies!

Right - I will go back to sleep as having a mare on posting! Anyway thanks for clarifying on the validity of routing!
