hi,
i recently wanted to travel from ilkley [ilk] to whitehaven [wth]. It takes 2 hrs 24 mins by car, and 5 hrs 22 mins by train, that's well over twice as long!
are there any quicker routes, possibly involving cycle/bus/train combinations for this journey?
and why is it so slow by train? i've never had to plan another journey that was so much slower than by road.
cheers
