Title: January Fare Changes
Post by: TerminalJunkie on November 09, 2007, 18:27:53
We've been told that SDRs on the Barnstaple line will be reduced (no, that's not a typo!) in January, so that a Barnstaple-Exeter SDR goes down from ^13.20 to ^9.50.

This only really affects the 07:xx from Barnstaple weekdays, as CDRs are valid on all other Barnstaple line trains anyway. Still, no complaints :D

Are there to be any more SDR reductions?

Might be a sop to reduce the backlash from having to use the 142's on the line or could be a renaming the ticket type to Crapheap Day Return
