You can buy an advance rail ticket for 07:15 travelling from Liverpool to London tomorrow morning for £7.50
But if you wanted to travel from Reading to London it would cost you £23.60
Yeah but you earn more in London etc....................
Or more people will travel from Reading to London than Liverpool to London, so supply and demand means they will charge more :shrug:Quote:

Same with trains... and if a couple of days before a train has loads of seets they will sell them cheaper... makes sense to meQuote:
