 I hate trains - Fursty Ferret
Train companies, that is. Trying to travel from Aylesbury to Exeter - the train line says £94. Except that the standard prices are £15 for the first bit, £2.30 for the tube, and £47 for the next.

So somewhere in there they're randomly adding on £28 and not showing it in the fare breakdown. And it's not just TTL, since National Rail Enquires does exactly the same thing.

Other countries don't have this problem - who's creaming off the £28 and where is it going?

Have given my dad a printout of the individual ticket prices and told him to buy them at the stations.
