This one is a hypothetical.
NRCoT condition 3.3 states:
Does a counted place reservation suffice for this condition? If so, am I entitled to a seat with my counted place reservation? If I am, and I try to board a service for which my counted place reservation is valid - but I am unable to find a free seat - am I entitled to a refund under condition 30.1 if I decide not to travel? Is it the case that "[my] reservation will not be honoured" under these circumstances?
NRCoT condition 3.3 states:
3.3 Unless you have made a reservation, please note that your Ticket does not automatically
entitle you to a seat, and at busy times you may have to stand. You will not be entitled to
any refund in these cases unless you hold a first class Ticket and no first class seats were
available on a train service where the timetable indicated that first class seats would be
provided. More information on the refund to which you are entitled in such circumstances
can be found in Condition 31.
