Of course, the dearer the ticket the more Avios required - but this allows you to book any train you require.

This can only be booked by calling Avios directly - no way to do it online AFAIK.
Any idea if such avios booking is fully refundable? or would you simply lock into the terms of the equivalent cash ticket you've effectively bought?
If fully refundable (which I'd doubt) then a decent deal.
