I'm traveling to Manchester this weekend with the family.

I already have a car, so fuel would be about £70 or the train for 4 of us would be £400. With a travel card and it's silly restrictions meaning we can't leave early would drop it to £200 (plus the travel card itself because it never works out cheaper for us so I never get one), which is still more than twice as much as it would be to drive. I would prefer to sit around a table with the family for the ride, but not £400 much.
