(02 Sep 2017, 6:56 pm)Ambassador wrote GNEs ludicrous stage and fare zones continue to baffle me...
Durham to Birtley £4.40
Durham to Newcastle £4.40
That's a 14 mile difference in distance
North Lodge to Durham is also £4.40. The fare stage changes at Chester-le-Street Front Street to £3.50, between that point and Durham.
You should count yourself lucky. You could have the wacky and wonderful Washington network to put up with, where it costs twice as much to travel beyond the Galleries from Brady Square, on a Sunday...
