    Because by the time the train arrives you should be married.

    No, no, no, that's not what it means. When "single" is written on a train ticket, it means that the ticket is valid for a single journey, in other words, just one way without returning.

    They have no idea what your marriage status is.

    I suppose the cartoon bloke on the Lloyds TSB advert had to pay a surcharge on his ticket considering he's married by the time he gets off.

    That's just you. One look at you and it's obvious you're single. Mine always says " Phwoar".

    Sorry, just noticed you're new to this- hope you're not too offended by me calling you ugly on your first day. Hope you enjoy the site, and remember not to take people too seriously.

    I can't believe some of the answers to this question, I know it wasn't the funniest question ever but surely it was obvious the guy was joking!!!!!!!!!!

    "Single" is a term used in railway jargon to state "One Way" if it says "Return" or "Round Trip" then it is a Round Trip.

    Hope this has helped,
