Looking at the fares on the britrail site, they seem quite a bit higher for the same trips than the national rail enquiries site... any reason why that may be?
Rail fares in Britain are a totally incomprehensible subject and I am sure even McClef who used to work in that field (by his own admission) will be totally bamboozled by their complexity. This website will give you some clues - http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/tra...-train-tickets - but I have found that buying a ticket one-way is cheaper than a round-trip for instance.
