if you'd have bought that as an advance fare via the GWR or national rail enquiries apps you could have gotten that ticket for £17, OP. Also, that's what you get for travelling in and around London during a huge event like the Jubilee, you're asking for trouble.

Train prices are revolting, you can pay over £1/mile easily. There's no way the most energy and space efficient mode of transport should be so expensive.

You can travel hundreds of miles by air for less than OP paid for his train ticket, there's no way you can justify that.

And the worse thing is, they're subsidised by the taxpayer too! Absolute fucking joke.

A return ticket from my village where I live to place of work is £5.70, and I'd have to get up an hour earlier and cycle on my Brompton to the station. The whole trip would take about 1 hr 30 minutes each way.

I can drive the same way in 25 minutes and it'll cost around £7 in petrol.

Is there any way to get train tickets for cheaper in this country? Like is there a pass I can purchase? I'd like to use public transport and cycle but it doesn't seem worth it yet.

Wages 60% of southern England, already one of the most wage depressed nations on earth relative to national wealth. Still feeling the horrors of generations of malnutrition. Tiny awful homes despite being in a less developed part of England than the southeast. It’s like being a zombie except with the knowledge that one day you will have the joyous release of death

Almost every railway will sell you a season pass that'll drop the cost in half but requires you to pay for at least a month upfront.

If you work at a place with an HR department, reach out to them about season ticket loans: they pay the upfront cost and take it out of your wages for the next twelve months. It's an easy win for them for their green cred. Might not work if you're a shelfstacker at Morrisons, or 'HR' is 'Janice when she's not on reception' though.

I work in the automotive industry. My company is inherently against any form of non-car travel which includes cycling and public transport.

I know. Fortunately ICE doesn't have this problem and the ticket takes the trash off the Autobahn.

That’s not an intrinsic property of public transportation you know.
