Can you tell me the most affordable way to travel from Reading to Paddington, like I’m a five-year-old?
I’m thinking about moving to Reading, but the train prices are super high! What’s the least expensive way to get to Paddington? I heard if I buy a ticket to Maidenhead and then use my bank card to tap in, I can go straight to London. Is that correct?
Also, I’ll be working in the office three days a week.
Thanks a bunch!
Okay, imagine you have a treasure map, and you’re looking for the best way to get from one point (Reading) to another point (Paddington) without spending too many shiny coins!
First, you take the train! You can hop on a train from Reading to Maidenhead. This part is like riding a little rocket to get closer to London.
Next, here’s the sneaky part! When you get to Maidenhead, you can use your bank card (just like how you tap your toy car on the ramp to go faster!) to get on another train that will take you straight to Paddington.
Why do this? This method can help you save some shiny coins because sometimes the ticket from Maidenhead to Paddington is cheaper than going all the way from Reading.
And remember! Since you’ll be traveling to the office 3 times a week, you might want to check if there are any special tickets for regular travelers, like a weekly pass that can save you even more coins!
So, it’s like taking a little detour to find your treasure while using fewer shiny coins! Happy travels! 🚆✨
