Bit harsh old boy.
However. How about a 146/TP from Carlisle to London City on a 1/2 out 1/2 in basis daily. Eastern could be a good model for this.
Virgin Trains charge for a 0544 dep/0953arr and a 1808 dep/2143arr the same day a very reasonable £377 business return. They can only charge this rate because of a non existent air alternative.
Of course a local man can do the 90 minute drive and catch the first BA to Heathrow from Newcastle and then slug it out into central London.
Just a thought.
