Family ‘banned from more than 1,000 petrol stations’ amid fuel theft row - Reddthat

Lemmy

This confused me:

The couple say they were even left unable to visit their son, who lives more than 200 miles away in London, out of fear that they would be left stranded without fuel if petrol stations refused to serve them.

I had a look, and Blackburn does have a train station, and I seem to remember London having one or two, what prevented them from taking the train?

Trains are for the poors. They need to be able to drive quickly to see their special boy.
Quite the opposite. Trains in the UK are crazy expensive, especially if you plan on going anywhere near London and didn’t have the foresight to buy the ticket 12 weeks ago.
