travel to Portsmouth/Southampton area

[stillooking]

So would I, but not according to the website.... trainline: buy cheap train tickets, get UK train times & fares - book seats online

I had a contract down in Oxfordshire and thought the trains would be an option (same line), but they were just overpriced and ran on the wrong times with awkward changes.

Thanks, I'll have a look at the link.

Yep, the prices have shot up on that line, even just down to Oxford, having travelled there last month.
