Any reason why there are no off-peak same day return tickets available from the trainline or national rail for the journey from the Morecambe area to Shrewsbury? I'm travelling from Manchester and don't seem to be having a problem getting one from here to Shrewsbury, but when I've had a look for a mate setting off from Morecambe I can't see the same ticket types. Actually, I can get off-peak same day returns from Morecambe to Manchester, and then another from Manchester to Shrewsbury which works out cheaper than buying a standard same day return from Morecambe to Shrewsbury. Bizarre.
Because the national rail service has gone to ratpoo? (In ticketing terms).
Used to be able to turn up when you liked, get a reasonably-priced ticket between one place and another, same price whenever you bought it and you could use any train you liked to get you there and any you liked to get you back.
Don't know how they keep managing to get passengers, they put that many blocks in people's way.
Is the glass half full or half empty? Mmmm? hard to say - but it does look like there's room for more beer!
