im looking to go out to wimbledon on a day trip later on this week, i just need a good site to calculate the cost of a train ticket as i am currently living in a rural town and expect a lot of stops and changeovers.

Edit: im in north walsham, norfolk; sorry about that wicked.:)

Might help if you tell us the name of the "rural" town

You don't have to buy, just leave before you reach the payment page....

north walsham, norfolk - to wimbledon station -- stops at norwich, stratford, waterloo then wimbledon.

oh, crap, forgot to mention, £82 is for 2 people :)

Try pricing up two single tickets rather than a return. Its very often cheaper. (£23 each way) How bizzare, £23 for 1st class and £24 for standard!

It would have been cheaper if you had booked it a few weeks ago

Looks like you could get two single tickets for £36

All depends on your time requirements
