Does anyone know if this is the arrival or departure time?

E.g., given this schedule from Woking to London Waterloo:

09:24-09:53
09:28-09:55
09:29-10:05
09:41-10:08
09:46-10:13
09:50-10:19
09:56-10:23
09:59-10:27
10:12-10:40

is this first valid train the 9:29, arriving 10:05, or is it the 10:12, arriving 10:40?

    In your example, the first train it is valid on is the 10:03 departure.

    This is spelt out on the railcard restrictions webpage.
    Where it says...
    The Network Railcard discount is not available on tickets for travel before 10.00hrs...

    Have you checked with the train operating company to see what they say? They apply the restriction.
