Virgin Trains: railcard ticket validity - Barry Doe in Rail issues 681 and 683 has explained the changes that Virgin have introduced on Railcard off-peak validity on Peak period trains. The off-peak price availability remains BUT the tickets must only be for the Virgin part of the journey. So for example, a railcard holder can still travel from Euston to Wolverhampton at peak times for an off-peak fare but must re-book from Wolverhampton if s/he wants to travel say to Shrewsbury
Also from Rail issue 683 is a news piece explaining the 36 week extension to the Virgin WCML franchise...
