Routeing Guide website down?

[mikeg]

Is anyone else having trouble getting on the Routeing Guide? I keep getting a bad gateway error.

Is there any alternative way of accessing it other than data.atoc.org/routeing-guide ?

Down here too.

Various forum members (including myself, though it's a few months out of date) likely have copies of the data sitting around, if you've got a specific question.

Thanks, I don't at this point have a specific question, well I do but now it's theoretical as taken a different route that's definitely permitted...

It is rather bad though, as it forms part of the contract between the passenger and the railway.

Indeed.

If you want to check a route is Permitted (rather than just to find out what the list of permitted routes is) if you get an itinerary on a single ticket via nationalrail.co.uk using your relevant via points then that is definitive.

nationalrail.co.uk doesn't allow me to enter more than one "via" points (well, it does but it shows itineraries matching only one of the via points), making me difficult to generate the itineraries I want.

There are cases when I can't even get nationalrail.co.uk to generate only itineraries following a certain, fixed geographical route for a long-distance journey because it returns itineraries with trains going via other locations even if I enter one key location in the via route, making it extremely inconvenient to see how frequent the connections on a certain fixed route is. I sometimes need to add a lot of via / avoid points just to let it generate itineraries on the route with the shortest distance.

I was trying rp_calc and that was 504ing on Sunday - all seems to be back up now.
