    Can't do my money-saving trick due to train strike?

    It is s day return. If it helps, I am taking my bike. From B to C is maybe ten miles. I could say I'm biking the last leg of the journey.

    Can't do my money-saving trick due to train strike?

    The usual, more obvious route to C is not possible at all, also. Additionally, there are no trains calling at that station tomorrow

    Can't do my money-saving trick due to train strike?

    I would like to travel from station A to station B, tomorrow. A return is around £40. What I always do is buy a ticket from station A to station C. A permitted route is to change at station B. I cut the journey short, never actually go to C, always alight at station B, and get the whole...

    Preston to Blackburn, Darwen and Westhoughton

    Starting in Preston, I would like to visit Blackburn, Darwen and Westhoughton, and end up back in Preston, the same day. What is the cheapest way of doing this? Is there a day return from Preston to a certain station that would allow me to break my journey at those three places?

    Break in return journey

    Couldn't they get any of several per hour New Street - University trains for the first part of the journey, heading to Redditch / Bromsgrove / Hereford? (And then, of course, get the hourly stopping train from University - Cheltenham).

    Worcester to Melksham via Reading, Pewsey & Westbury?

    I was playing around on the National Rail Enquiries app and I discovered that apparently there's an off-peak day return from Worcester to Melksham which is valid via Pewsey. It's Worcester - Reading - Westbury - Melksham. The app said it's £23.90, the same price as going the usual way via...

    Weather disruption Sunday 17th July and following few days

    I have an advance purchase ticket for the 7.04 Birmingham to Liverpool Lime Street train, using the direct London NorthWestern service, this Friday. Is it likely this train will be running? All of them are cancelled today. If not, would I be allowed to get to Liverpool using other operator's...

    Cheapest ticket Worcester to Newtown

    I want to know what would be the cheapest way to buy a day return from Worcester to Newton (Powys), please. Does anybody know of any combination of tickets for under £30? I'll be travelling on a Saturday, returning the same day. I don't want advance purchase tickets as I want flexibility and...

    Crewe - Manchester - Liverpool - Crewe

    Thanks. I saw the Anytime fare, but this Off-Peak ticket is even better. If I bought this ticket, I won't be getting off at St Helens Jn, just passing through. Do I have to explain anything to the train staff, or do I just show my ticket once and probably not expect them to query me again?

    Crewe - Manchester - Liverpool - Crewe

    Thanks for the replies. Just been playing around with National Rail Enquiries. Would a return from Crewe to St Helens Junction be suitable for my journey? It's £20.60 but seems it might work and is a more straightforward ticket. 1650479166 Thanks. I did see the £1.50 tickets. i might be able to...
