The potential loss on the railway through fraudulent use of a season ticket is far greater than on the buses as generally rail journeys are longer than bus journeys.

A week?

Yes, £7484 per week.

 

[CaptainHaddock]

Yes, £7484 per week.

It's still only about 10% of the average London wage.

I misquoted, but the point still stands.
