I've done "same day changes" on BA where I booked the cheapest flight of the day and then changed to the flight I actually wanted, even though it was almost full.
With COVID, state of emergency / lockdown, restrictions for travelling between regions, a brand new train operator, etc.... I don't think it's completely unreasonable to assume that one could change dates.
But yeah...
