The Northern 10p tickets return tomorrow morning at 9:00 am according to the Northern email I've just received.

Let's hope the trains run on time.

Our 10p Flash Sale returns tomorrow. That means you can get your hands on Advance train tickets for just 10p!

There are over 180,000 available for travel between 13 Jan-14 Feb and 24-29 Feb, so be quick because once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Let's hope they don't run on time. I bought 12 (6 returns) 10p tickets in the last offer and due to cancellations got 2 free complimentary return tickets. So 8 days out for £1.20.

Thanks for the heads up guys. I haven't received the email myself but does anyone know what the travel period is and when the sale is on until?

Also, was Southport to Manchester included last time?

That's not all either, as kids travel half price, your little ones can go for an even smaller price of just 5p!

So, be sure to come back tomorrow for your chance to grab a bargain.

How did you do that?

They have to be bought directly from Northern, so would be covered by Northern's automatic delay repay system.

The automatic delay repay system doesn't appear to give the option of free tickets, just a refund to your payment card.

I had the same. Automatic delay repay didn’t work, it didn’t do anything, so I submitted a manual claim and it worked!

10p tickets are for specified journeys, are they valid on following journeys if the specified journey was cancelled.?

You may take the Northern train before or after the cancelled train.

Examples of where you may be able to take another operators train includes:
  • where ticket acceptance is in place
  • if your ticket is endorsed by staff
  • at the discretion of the guard
  • if you would otherwise be stranded

I'm surprised Class195's email mentions a start time. My email does not mention any specific time. I seem to remember that last year tickets were available not long after midnight.

Last year, six of us had a day trip to Southport on the direct train from Leeds via Manchester. I would be very surprised if Southport - Manchester was not included in the offer.

I guess we only have 30 minutes to wait to start booking those trips.

I've just received a marketing text about the 10p tickets.

It says coming soon, so not this morning then.

has anyone got on the web site for these tickets?

Nothing live yet. I'm at work constantly refreshing the website.

Do we know how many 10p tickets there are for each train journey?

I seem to recollect Northern saying they had restricted it to less than 20 for each advance departure.

Can we put a delay repay claim in for the late sale of these tickets?

Ho Ho He He.

Or have Northern just forgot about turning the computer on? This one is the random ticket generator it works along side the random unit generator.
