The Return Trip on a Train
Often the rerurn trip is the most difficult for anybody to book.
Tomorrow, for instance, I am visiting Norwich, the two Nottingham clubs and then returning from Manchester Piccadilly. Of late, I’ve been booking an off-peak ticket for the return journey, as I know it can be used on most trains in the evening. Usually, in comfort too, except on Virgin’s Glasgow services. So if I’m early, I don’t have to wait until some ungodly hour to get my booked train home.
But tomorrow, the return Off-Peak single from Manchester was over £40, whereas the Advance Standard Class single was just £15. But as the Advance First Class single was only seven pounds more I took that. I’ll get the diffeence back in three cups of coffee.
It seems to pay well, if you don’t follow rules and check all options.
