That's actually very ...Thanks so much for that! That's actually very helpful info, I never realised I could get a train ticket and tube ticket together, especially for £15! I always buy the day travelcard for the tube seperately. Unfortunately having looked again at the date I realise it's in Easter hols and so I'm away, but will keep my eyes peeled for any more meet ups, especially in Brighton!jessiekayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11976912550515106937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1618065523528740033.post-67265255018121901392012-02-13T11:11:08.798+01:002012-02-13T11:11:08.798+01:00Hi JessieKay!
Thanks for your comment on my blog. ...Hi JessieKay!<br />Thanks for your <b><a href="http://sew-incidentally.blogspot.com/2012/02/ahh-it-was-brisk-and-beautiful-in.html?showComment=1328787436084#c7248572119340868512" rel="nofollow">comment on my blog</a></b>. Re: train tickets prices to London for the <b><a href="http://sew-incidentally.blogspot.com/2012/02/well-if-it-was-that-good-lets-do-it.html?utm_source=BP_recent" rel="nofollow">Walthamstow meet-up</a></b> ... Walthamstow Central station is within 'Zone 3' for tube travel. From Brighton there are direct trains (with no changes) into 'London Bridge' station. There's a 09.34 'FIRST CAPITAL CONNECT' train service to London Bridge station (it arrives at 10.32). From London Bridge it's approx. 40-45mins tube/underground journey time to 'Walthamstow Central' station. The cheapest tickets I can see start at £15.00 - that's for the 'SUPER OFF-PEAK TRAVELCARD' which will include unlimited travel on the tube and buses for that date (no booking in advance is required for that ticket price). If you did decide to come along then you'd need to ask at Brighton station for "<i>The 'SUPER OFF-PEAK TRAVELCARD' to include London Underground travel for Zones 1 to 3</i>." Don't forget to allow an extra 20mins to queue-up to buy your ticket in the morning though LOL! (Note: What you DO NOT WANT TO DO is to ask for a return ticket to London Bridge - because you will not be able to use that ticket on the tube/Underground/buses, and you'd end up paying extra money for your tube tickets eekk!). The £15.00 ticket prices ONLY allows you to travel on 'First Capital Connect services' - but you can use any 'First Capital Connect service' train to come back home on your return journey. If you wanted instead to be able to travel back home from any train service - for example if you wanted to come back from 'London Victoria' station (which has 'SOUTHERN' train services back to Brighton) then your cheapest train ticket is £19 (again another 'Super Off-peak Day Travelcard'). The £19 can be used on any train back home to Brighton.<br /><br />I hope that helps you :) Great if you can come - but chill if you can't, I'm pretty sure we're gonna have another Brighton meet-up in Summer!Claire (aka Seemane)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05175575205044308437noreply@blogger.com
