oxford transportation
 
I'm planning to take the oxford tube from london to Oxford and then rent a car. Hertz is the only company that will let me rent in oxford and return to holyhead. How can I get from wherever the Oxford tube stops to wherever the Hertz rental car is located?<BR>

Uh, Barb, there is no tube to Oxford from London. There is train service and bus service. If you take the train you will arrive at Oxford train station. The bus arrives at Oxford Coach Station. I do not know where the car rental offices are located, try getting on the Hertz web site. <BR>

Uh, Ed, the name of the coach service between London and Oxford is the Oxford Tube. And the answer to Barb's question is, take a taxi to Hertz, unless it is located in the town centre.

Ron<BR>Sorry. She did not say it was a bus service. I assumed she was thinking of the tube as in underground. I have take both the train and the bus to Oxford and I guess I did not ever notice that the bus was named the Oxford Cube...I am so sorry to be such an idiot and I apologize most humbly and you can come over and beat me with a wet noodle for being an idiot. PLEASE EXCUSE ME YOUR SMARTNESS!!!!!!

ed, &quot;Oxford Tube&quot; is a VERY well known name. Perhaps, if one is not an expert, one should not pretend to be one on this forum.
