I just used the National Rail app to look up the train times between Clapham Junction and Shepherd's Bush.
I was quoted £12.60 return off peak (this is on Sunday so off peak)! This seems ridiculously high it's no more than 2 miles, probably less and a direct train.
Why is the price so high?
I then checked on TFL which says the fare £1.60 each way, £3.20 return. I presume to get the latter fare I need to use Contactless or Oyster.
However I've never seen such a large price difference quoted. I assumed it was a mistake but the Railforums ticket web page gives the same price.
How on earth has this happened?
