Not really. Advance fares on most UK train lines are cheaper than advance fares on most planes IMX. The mistake most people make is comparing walk-up-and-go train fares with advance plane tickets.

Return, Glasgow to London, 1/10/13-8/10/13 Cheapest tickets.

Train: £126.70

Easyjet: £72.98

You may be right though - I didn't spend much time researching this at all; I just did a couple of web searches: easyjet and trainline.
