Today I came across a multimodal journey planner. It can find and compare car and public transport routes for the same journey, which might be useful in future. It would be useful to get price comparisons too, but that is likely to be very difficult.

I plotted a trip from London to Isham in Northamptonshire (the town from which my family takes its name). All very well and good, except on the map page, a rail link is shown straight as an arrow from Northampton directly into Cardiff Bay and continuing into the Atlantic.

Having never been to England or Wales, I cannot definitively say whether that rail line exists. Perhaps it is the beginning of a Trans-Atlantic rail tunnel (TART for short), and in future Brits will be invited to "Take a TART to America".
