How can people afford cars?

Including gettting too and from the station at either end?

folding bike there, or walking-its free.

Easily is never true with the train, I like traveling long distance by train but it is never easy to make it cheaper, unless you're booking weeks in advance.

accepted, but if you have a meeting it can be booked in advance by Tiffany in reception. No doubt you need to be dedicated to get into training it everywhere,
and every journey needs taking into account. It makes me weep how the fares system fucks everyone in the ass to the benefit of the fat cats.
