My friend was booking a journey recently and it got me thinking, so I did a bit more research:
Travelling off peak according to online booking sites. London Paddington to West Drayton, travelling after 0930am, returning same day= £16.90 return.
London Paddington to Iver (further away), travelling after 0930am, returning same day= £10.60
Having a look, there are other similar examples of outrageous journey rip off's within London.
How is this right? And would the ticket office at London Paddington know to sell someone requesting the West Drayton journey, the cheaper Iver ticket and let them get off a stop early?
