      In the UK, you gotta pay £50 for a return trip to London lasting 40 minutes. Train companies gouge the ever loving fuck out of you and Stagecoach, a popular bus company over there, is no better.

      Although I guess that’s an improvement over not existing at all. Might as well not exist to most families though, for the prices they charge.
