Not too much more for anyone under 26, over 65 or making 10 journey, which can get any journey for a very cheap price (Go Pass 1/10 (1 or 10 journeys between any two stations for 6,40€ or 52€)), Seniorenbiljet (6,50€ for any return!) and Rail Pass (any 10 journeys on the network for 77€) respectivley).Costs much more from Brussels though

I can confirm that. I am now in Liguria and the cheapest thing here are the trains. And Trenitalia is a lot better than 20 years ago. But that is OT.Expensive ? In western Europe, only Italy bas cheaper trains than Belgium.
Friends getting 2 cheap tickets - Sat 9am ish from St Pancras to Brussels , but ultimate destination (for cycling observation) - I assume they can add Brussels to Gent onto their E* booking ?
If not - is there a special weekend cheapo fare to buy at Midi as mentioned above. Thanks in advance.
On week rends, the return (I.e. two way) ticket is at the price of the single...
But doesn' t E* still sell the 'any belgian station' ticket ?
The weekend return to Gent is slightly cheaper, at EUR 10,40, than ES's add-on fare. You can get the tickets easily from the machines at Midi station, there's even a screen in English! Or get a ticket via NMBS's app which is really straightforward to use compared with those I have tried to add to my phone in England.
