Travelling out on the 13th Jun, back on the 14th June. Just me, no railcard.
Standard Class Off-Peak Return.
I'm actually staying overnight in the Premier inn near Moorfileds and finishing at the Echo Arena, so might want to return from James Street?
I'm guessing that it's sold as Cleethorpes to Liverpool Stations? Would that be an appropriate ticket? Is there actually any point my travelling to Moorfields given that it's about, what, a 15 minute walk from Lime Street?
Also, what routing would be appropriate for this? Obviously Transpennine to Manchester then onwards, but the quickest route leaving at 14:34 seems for some reason to involve changing at Doncaster and Leeds. Seems a little circuitous - would it be OK?
If I were to get a ticket to Liverpool Stations, would that be valid TO Moorfields and FROM James Street?
I could reasonably risk a pair of advances for this journey, but I don't know Lime Street and if I were to be hanging around there waiting for the last feasible train would I be safe and have somewhere to sit? Also, would the final legs Lime Street - Moorfields and James Street - Lime Street be reservable, or would I be able to just rock up at James Street post-run, get the next train to Lime Street and wait for my connection there?
