I've noticed recently that LNER emails have what at first appears to be useful advice about whether you've a booked seat, but on closer inspection is misleading.
Any train that has no booked seat gives advice on finding a seat based on an LNER train.
Whilst I know my Northern service has no carriage M (and that there were never any real reservations on that train) this looks likely to confuse the unfamiliar traveller, though that's who it seems to be aimed at. The advice to try a different journey (in this case on an advance limited to that train) looks designed to worry people.
