Apparently a walk-up train fare would cost £73.50, but he managed to pre-book his return trip train for £40.90

Kudos to the author for their faith in the ability to execute on the bus journey and get to the train in time for departure.
- pm215 5y agoIf you check out the end of the thread you can see that they stayed overnight in a hotel in Morecambe and took the train back the next morning. There wouldn't be a train to catch at gone midnight when they arrived in Morecambe (the last sensible train option to London leaves at about 20:00 and takes three hours). I wonder if they had a plan B for accommodation if they'd missed that last bus to Morecambe, though...
