It'd still cost a lot more than £13 for the two of us. Even separating out the tickets, the cheapest singles from York to Durham, late afternoon are over £17. We're not going to get the price down to something comparable.

And it will still take 2 hours on public transport (which is nothing - it takes us 90 minutes to get to Newcastle by bus - on a weekday. 2 hours on a Sunday)
