The Ealing - Heathrow rail fare seems more than the average budget air
fare,


And to save te rest of you doing what I had to do.

It's 16.30 GBP.

which is more than fare from padd?

The fares on the system are the current Heathrow Express fares via
Paddington, as they increase travelling towards Hayes & Harlington. I
understand the idea is for the fares to be set at:

Heathrow Express fare minus Paddington to Ealing Broadway / West
Ealing/ Southall/ Hayes & Harlington fare.


And this is how to encourage the use of public transport and reduce traffic
congestion?!
