NCOC 12: "These restrictions are set out in the notices and other

I would start to doubt whether or not the Fares Manual counts as being
"published", any more. The Avantix CD is called "Fares Information", and
I would expect a court to treat it as the only reasonable form of
publication for most of the restrictions we commonly discuss.
