Hi all
I've been checking out prices on NationalRail for INV-MAN via EDB and I've noticed that a single ticket costs £113 (anytime day retn) and a return £126 (O/P). I'm wondering why a single doesn't cost 50% less as logically I'm burning 50% less diesel, having 50% less staff and 50% less track access on account of going one way? It's a bit of a puzzle
Can anyone out there in Ticketland explain the economics behind it as I think I'm being a bit dense. Oh yeah PS: dates were out on 22nd April and the return was on 24th April as of today the 19th.
There was an advance at £60 single but it's the "any train" as per T&Cs tickets that I tend to go for as insurance!
