I managed to snag a £20 there-and-back to London by catching the 05:55. How does that compare to other countries' normal prices?

South West trains (names for south west of london not the actual west) are ridiculously expensive because of london commuters and they always seem to run over capacity.

Seriously. Long distance, car is faster and cheaper. Medium distance, car is cheaper. Short distance, cycle or walk.
The only time I ever take public transport is going into London, because it is fucking stupid trying to drive there.
