^26 for a weekly ticket. Remember that Chiltern let you park for free if 3 people are in the car or if it is electric.

Add that to the fare then.  Even then a car is very expensive if you only use it twice a week and leave it in a car park miles from where you are for most of that time.

No-one is suggesting that anyone commutes Abergav to London via Warwick.  Roll Eyes

I was pointing out that the Cotswold line is now so slow, it is quicker to drive all the way to Warwick and use Chiltern. This is true for most Cotswold stations.
