Title: Price of Advanced Tickets Post by: jakemonkfish on October 07, 2008, 08:48:31 I'm confused, at least I was yesterday. each site I tried showed a different price for advanced tickets from highbridge to london - ranging from ^36 to over ^50 when they were shown at all. Why the differences? ( i haven't checked yet today)
Title: Re: Price of Advanced Tickets Post by: grahame on October 07, 2008, 11:41:38 There are allocations of advanced purchase tickets on quieter trains at each of three prices, and once the cheapest ones are gone for any particular train, the next price is offered. It's more complex because as well as 3 standard class fares, there are 3 first class ones - you may, then, find 6 different advances purhase single fares. And I would imagine from Highbridge there may be 6 fares via Bristol, and 6 more fares via Taunton.
