Thanks all. Looks like going the direct way back via Brum and the rail replacement bus is probably the best way really - especially with the additional buses between Stevenage and Royston!

Thanks. Wonder if I can do it via London and avoid the rail replacement buses.

The £10.90 fares are via London :)Very roundabout but much cheaper.

Hi all Trying to get to Droitwich Spa from Cambridge over Easter as cheaply as possible (arriving Droitwich at 11am on Sat 7th and leaving at 16:00 on Sunday 8th). I have a Y-P railcard. With Advance tickets, I can get to Brum and back for £21.80-£24.50, then it's £12 Offpeak return to...

Thanks! I had no idea it was possible to break a return journey like that. Is it widely known amongst rail staff, or am I likely to get grief? Is it worth having a copy of the T&C at hand to remind them that I'm travelling legally? I'm aware of the rail works around the area - I think the...

Any advice? This is the best I've come up with so far. I have a 16-25 Railcard and am planning on using the 10% NUS discount too Travelling Waterbeach-> Exeter £23 offpeak single advance 22/12/11 (must be in the afternoon) Exeter -> Bracknell £19 offpeak single advance 27/12/11...
