Southern Southampton trains go to Victoria, not London Bridge - fix the interchange station

It would almost certainly be more expensive for a single person but if you have a group of 4+ then £150 for a taxi (the first result I found on a quick internet search) works out at £37.50 (or less) per person which may be cheaper-per-person than individual train tickets bought on the day. | |

Jan 25 at 14:09 | comment | added | DavGin | Pretty comprehensive, thanks! There are many options for my arrival/departure, most likely Luton or Gatwick airports (easyJet flies there, quite cheap and lots of departures from Geneva), and I always look for rail alternatives because I often use trains to travel through Europe when I have the time. Thanks for the tip of the advance booking for the train as well, did not realize that the price difference when doing so was so significant! | |
