Default South West Trains season ticket price finder

The price for a weekly rail-only season ticket from Hampton Court to
Waterloo listed at http://tinyurl.com/2flhgs is £29.30. My
girlfriend asked at Waterloo today and was told it was £33.80, just
as the nationalrail.co.uk season ticket calculator says.

Is there a way to get the £29.30 ticket or is that inaccurate
information?


Looking on www.swt-seasontickets.com (an SWT badged version of the
Trainline season ticket booking engine) gives an Annual price for Hampton
Court to Vauxhall of £1172. Dividing this by 40 to get the 7 Day rate
gives the magic £29.30 figure.

In short, whoever prepared that page hasn't checked their figures before
posting.


Could it be a cockup somewhere due to their being separate seasons for
Hampton (London), Hampton Wick and Hampton Court?
