The idea of spending 7 hours on a very average coach is not one for me, Clive. If I book ahead enough I can get a return on the train for £60.
Anyway, from all this I can't tell if your posts are incredibly anti-government and pro massive corporation. Ask me what a profit is one more damn time...

im pro-enterprise and against rent-seeking through government manipulation
so im for government when it ensures competition and free markets, against it when it establishes monopolies, cartels, special protections, etc
so you’re saying the train price is advantageous to you against alternative options? what’s the problem then?
