There's a cheaper non-London fare i.e. routed via Kensington Olympia. Off peak first class day return £39.10 (anytime £72.80) standard equivalents £26.10 and £48.50.Wm Morrisonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432323264902617108.post-90114824651178500372015-04-29T10:04:01.331+01:002015-04-29T10:04:01.331+01:00Mercifully, Southern ticket machines do sell bound...Mercifully, Southern ticket machines do sell boundary extension tickets - there's even a video! http://www.southernrailway.com/tickets-and-fares/buying-tickets/ticket-vending-machine-videos#4Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432323264902617108.post-84728743543823519892015-04-29T09:04:59.908+01:002015-04-29T09:04:59.908+01:00Thanks.

Charlton Kings has long effectively been part of Cheltenham (except from the viewpoint of some residents) and was incorporated into the borough in 1974.<br /><br />It is my understanding that the inclusion of Cheltenham South to the name of Leckhampton came about not because of trains to Birmingham but those from Newcastle to Swansea, which ran via Banbury. Getting railways through or around the Cotswolds was always a complicated business.Daddysgadgetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12892897553855129226noreply@blogger.com
