Shocking Reality of Rail Fares

The cost of rail fares now in the UK is beyond shocking.

I have determined that for a group of 4,

 

it is cheaper to

 

  • buy a disposable car,
  • insure it for the day,
  • drive it to London,
  • see the tourist things that are there to see,
  • drive home,
  • call the breakers yard
  • have them collect the vehicle for scrap
  • cancel the insurance

 

than it is to buy 4 return tickets off peak, whether or not the tickets are directly purchased or through a comparison site.  See my evidence below of results through a popular discount rail ticket site (cough spottedhanky cough)...

 

Shocking!
