Just as an example, Bristol to Paddington is 118 miles.
118 * £0.28 = £33.04 for the marginal cost of driving.
An anytime ticket is £98.50.
An off-peak ticket is £43.00.
UK train travel seems to only be cheaper if you can buy an advance ticket (restricting you to the one particular train you've bought for), or with a season ticket (where the price is regulated).
