It is cheaper for two people to travel in their own car rather than by train on some journeys. Rail fares should be cheaper than taking a car, encouraging less car use.

Typical journey Forres to Aberdeen 78 miles

single rail fare for couple (2 at £23.20) = £46.40

typical total cost by car (ref AA) 78miles at £0.40 = £31.20
