Social media users took screenshots of the journey listing on trainline.com of the trip from Taunton in Somerset to Trowbridge and it has since gone viral online.

A user with the handle, Daravel-Fox, said: ''£10,000 first class railway ticket. Sounds like standard prices for via London trains (sic).''

Another Twitter user called Ryan Laird added: ''I knew UK train prices were bad at times but £10,000 for a train ticket? (sic)''

Great Western Railway have responded and claim a technical issue had occurred and reassured passengers that the journey would cost around £12.70.

A representative for the network told the Wiltshire Times: ''We are aware of an IT glitch which has published fares for a first class journey that does not exist.

''We are working to remedy this as soon as possible.

''Anytime single fares between Taunton and Trowbridge are available from £12.70.''
