God, even more than that. It costs me £98 ($119) or more just to go from where I live (in the south of England) to London (also in the south of England!)If I wanted to get to Newcastle in the North I’d either have to book months in advance or pay an excruciating amount. Our train prices are absolutely insane. Especially given that we have over 2500 train stations and our country is smaller than Oregon!
