The Rover tickets are brilliant value yet very poorly advertised. When FGW took over the franchise they put rangers down by a 1/3.

Same!


Basically, they changed them to Half Price from Adult instead of the traditional rover "Third off"

I think they're brilliant value now. ^5 is a bargain.

Well, no, as we would only be able to use the rover for 12hours out of a 24hour day!
