The normal Off Peak Day Return has the same restriction from
Liverpool St. However, there's a Greater-Anglia-only off peak
Travelcard which has no evening blackout period.


Not any more. Evening peak restrictions only apply to GA Super-Off Peak
tickets, now available on weekdays, and not to Off-Peak tickets via the West
Anglia Route including Tottenham Hale.


There's conflicting information online. Journey planners suggest the
Off-Peak Day Return isn't valid in the evening peaks on either route,
but looking at the BRFARES site they say it's a B1 which doesn't have
any evening restrictions on either route (but I'm sure no-one thinks
they are valid from Kings Cross).


I haven't looked anything up, but it sounds like you're both talking
at cross-purposes - you're talking about the *any permitted* Off-Peak
Day Returns, Colin's talking about the (cheaper) *GA-only* Off-Peak
Day Returns.


Colin is having problems with an invisible "GA-only" in some of his
postings.

The full situation is: Mon-Fri blackout

Super-off-peak day return GA-only 15.59-19.01
Off-peak day return GA-only none (but some JPs don't agree)
Off-peak return GA-only 16.29-18.34

Super-off-peak day return available weekends only
Off-peak day return 16.29-18.34 LST
16.29-19.00 KGX
Off-peak return 17.30-18.30 KGX (LST unrestricted)
