I practically never bother with advance fares so what I'm about to describe may be normal. I needed to travel from Taunton to London and back during the peak periods in late March. NRE offered advance tickets at £22 each way with a senior railcard. I clicked through to the GWR site to purchase them. It said those fares were no longer available. A new search offered me £59 for the outward journey without a railcard, and "+£4" for the return (ignoring the pence). I added the railcard and the total came to £44, as offered by NRE.
I'll be interested to see what price is printed on the ticket.
Anyway, I've always believed an advance ticket to be totally standalone. Is that no longer the case?
