Rugby to Euston (Split at MKC)

[Andy Pacer]

Been having a look at return fares Rugby to Euston for tomorrow, splitting at Milton Keynes.

There is an option for:

Off Peak Day Return Rugby - Milton Keynes
Super Off Peak Return Milton Keynes - Euston (Avanti Only).

Wondering why the fares engines aren't offering that option for the 0834 from Rugby, which only gives me the option for an Off Peak Day Return for the Milton Keynes to Euston leg. I can't see any restriction on the Super Off Peak on a Saturday, and it seems to work for earlier journeys.

Does the 0834 connect into a LNR service?

Does the 0834 connect into a LNR service?

No, it's a direct Avanti service stopping only at Milton Keynes.

I wonder if it's something to do with the Rugby stop being pick up only.

Obviously that shouldn't matter but...

Sorry, it was pick up only today, not on Sat!

It's most odd. The 0852 "works" with the Super Off Peak option with no issue.

I've had a look at doing it as my own split (ie searching for the legs seperately) and it's offered me the Super Off Peak so must just be an odd quirk of the booking engines that offer splits.
