I think you have that totally spot on Tom. Taking the NYMR as a line with a high end fare 4 trips costing £100 over the year seems a far better deal than 2 at £100, which may actually end up as only one anyway due to the high cost of the one off...

I'm been thinking about this argument overnight - specifically, the impact of members on a railway's bottom line. This is based around a model in which members get a discount on tickets (typically 50% or thereabouts), which they can use an...

I was a member and would make extra repeat travelling visits to get the value out of it. It meant an affordable day out. Had I not been a member I would've made one travelling visit per year. The railway had four or five additional trips at...

Good point Tom, hope there is a sign at Norden but as the booking office now down by the car park a while since I have even seen it. When around a walk of around 500 metres to the station is now too much for me some days, a long walk slips from...

Walkers would be the other option. Park at Norden in the morning, have a nice walk across the hills to the beach, and catch a cheap fare back to your car at the end of the day. It’s more enticing than paying essentially full price for something...

Maybe suggested by the same person that told a friend of mine at a bank, after they had received a certified death certificate copy for her husband, that they could only talk to her after he had given permission.

Noticed a sign on the booking office window when I looked in the booking hall this morning. "Corfe Single £10 after 15:00" I guess this may be aimed at the folks who had arrived by bus in the morning. No sure who else the target audience would...

Some pensioner travel in London may not be optional but much is. Most of ours was as it was "something to do" say pop up to London, walk down the river have drink back in time for dinner. That would not have happened if we were paying for the...

Just a little annecdote: I'm a volunteer at 'my line', to which I went this afternoon for a round trip. I've spent many hours at home over the past week writing and reviewing timetables, and sending emails regarding railway matters. I payed...

Is that not the £24.95 fare, Pickering to Grosmont return although you would be leaving short at Goathland?

Surely this is a bit like Khan's (highly dubious?) argument about the cost of London Freedom passes. It is only lost revenue if you actually have to pay out, or lose revenue from someone else if the train is full to carry that person. They may...
