Hi all - enthusiastic amatuer here. If anyone is patient enough, I wonder if you could help answer this question...

How can I look up ticket restriction codes for a specific journey? I know the Ticket Restrictions feed provides the rules for each code, but I can't figure out how to map the codes onto specific journeys. In other words, given a passenger’s origin, destination, and ticket type label (e.g. Off-Peak Return), how do I find which restriction codes apply?

Looking through the (awesome) openrail wiki, there are references to a NFM64 dataset but that doesn't seem to exist any more. 

Thanks!

If it's a broken link, could you let me know where the link is, please?  As far as I'm aware, the NFM64 data referenced in https://wiki.openraildata.com/index.php/DTD is still available from the link on that page.

If it's the "NFM64 Fares" link at the bottom, then it is a 239.45MB download which uncompresses in to a file of over a gigabyte - is that the file you were expecting, or were you anticipating having something else?

Ah! The problem was that my browser was blocking the download. I've managed to get it now. Thank you for your help!
