Was looking into the cost of travelling on a Season Ticket between Oxford & Bristol Temple Meads and for a colleague, Reading to Bristol Temple Meads coming up with the following costs for 12 months...
Reading-Bristol Temple Meads £6964
Oxford-Bristol Temple Meads £4812 (must not involve a change at Reading)
Oxford-Bristol Temple Meads £6648 (must not involve a change at London)
Am I being a little naive in thinking that the second fare of £6648 would be valid via Reading and if so, would be cheaper for my Reading colleague to purchase than the standard Reading to Bristol Temple Meads Ticket?
Out of Interest, is Bristol considered to be part of a grouping for season ticket purposes? ie is a Parkway ticket valid to Temple Meads and vice versa - they are the same price on each option.
