Getting impatient advance tickets

Options
Does anyone know when train companies will be putting dates on for the 2nd week in September for advance tickets keep checking back doing my head in now.Longest time I've had to wait for ticket.
Did have an email thing where trainline contacts you when they are avaiable but don't trust them because in box on right of page on website says August.

    Another 2 or 3 weeks most likely - it may vary with train company


    August 22 is the latest date for many companies at the moment
  • It is nominally 12 weeks - but that can be a "moveable feast".

    I bought tickets earlier this year from Virgin and EMT and both were down to 7 weeks before the Advance tickets appeared.

    The trainline.com Advance notifications seems to work quite well - but DON'T buy your tickets from them, go to the TOC you will be using for travel.
