Just off the top of my head - maybe score-system-spacing
#'basic-distance is what you need to change?

I'd agree that's what it should be.  But it doesn't seem to work.  I think 
that's a bug, and it could be argued it's a regression, since you could 
space scores apart in 2.12.


James - workaround which does work:

\header {}

\paper {
score-markup-spacing #'minimum-distance = #50
}

MusicMain = { \relative c'' { c4 c c c } }

MusicCoda = { \relative c'' { b4 b b b } }

\score {
 \MusicMain
}

\markup { " " }

\score {
 \MusicCoda
}

Oh thanks so much for clarifying this and it wasn't just me going mad :)

I did write that last email rather late and I was a bit tired (which is never a 
good combination to write emails), so I probably did come across a bit terse, 
for that I am sorry.

I'll play about with the suggestions given so far. Thanks again,

James
