Cheap Day Return Ticket from Hertford N.
Hi
DQ hasn't been let loose on the trains for a bit. What does a cheap day return from Hertford North cost today, something that will also allow me to use the tubes?? I have a rough idea its £15.00 but if any of you lovely commuters can give me a rough idea or if there is another type of ticket I should be purchasing (I will be leaving HN after 10.30 am and not returning till after 11.30 pm same day)
Thanks [:)]

Ask for a 'split' travelcard. £12.00.

Whats that? I paid £16 for a travelcard on Wednesday and ask what was the cheapest way to get to and from Fulham Broadway.

It's a return to Crewe's Hill and travelcard from there. I was actually told about it by the guy in the ticket office when I asked for a travelcard recently and now that's what I always ask for. [:)]
(Off peak only of course)

wanted to add Dennis, got the £12.00 split ticket yesterday. Worked a treat, cannot quite understand whilst all the three tickets printed up with an amount on them actually added up to £16.50 when I was only charged £12.00 for this, but thats the railways for you!! Good tip.. Definitely works!! [:D]

Because presumably you had a travelcard costing £7.50 and a return ticket costing £4.50 - but the return ticket comes in 2 parts both of which have the full price of £4.50 printed on them.

If you travel to London more than 3 times a year at the weekend , its worth buying a Network Railcard for £25 .It gives you 1/3 off the price so a return to Crews Hill is £2.95 and a Travelcard from Crews Hill is £5 , so instead of £16 you pay just £7.95 . You can use the card for up to 4 people travelling together . http://www.railcard.co.uk/network
