Welcome back Gizmogle.

Going to count up my mileage at the first opportunity today, I reckon I've finally passed the 8,000 mile mark.

Well I just realised I've including my preserved line mileage and costs in that too!

If you take that out its 0.9p per mile :D My Northern pass probably contributes to my 2442 miles on 158's this year compared to 244 miles on HST's!

Hmm, it was said earlier that preserved mileage doesn't count.

But whatever, you can have your heritageness back :p

Wow, a whole 154 miles :o

Anyway, a nice Leeds - York and Shipley return in the rain today puts me on 6400.75.

So, should railcard mileages be divided by 3? With an 8 mile minimum for journeys starting before 10am Mon-Fri or course...

No, not cheating at mileage, just cheating in general. I've spent £182.60, but it's the Upper Crust BLTs that cost the money :p. I'd have a lot more miles if I lived up north instead of just going up there every few months. Can't wait to do a Freedom of the North West, which is the plan for next time.
