That was the reason I quoted a rail-only fare - London buses, being
subsidised to a greater extent than provincial ones, have far more
reasonable fares. Rail is in many cases the other way around.

I'm not complaining heavily about the bus fare increase, though it
won't be good for those doing shorter journeys. It's the Z1 Tube fare
I consider unreasonable.
