I've not got the Midland bit of NFM 95 but I do have a slightly older
one (NFM 90). This shows Loughborough - East Grinstead Savers as 7A.
7A is translated on Page E10 of
<http://www.atoc.org/retail/_downloads/NFM95/NFM95_Common_E.pdf> as:
"Return Travel
"You may travel on any train that is scheduled to DEPART London St
Pancras
"At or after 1039 Between 0901 & 1559 (inc.) and at or after 1901".
So, sadly, yes, the OP's SO was stuck at St Pancras for the duration of
the rush hour. The only way out of London in the peak, using code 7A,
is via Marylebone - but I can't see this being allowed by the Routeing
Guide. [Your move, my lord Bishop.]
