Hey all, I'm trying to find tickets from Edinburgh Waverley to Ebbw Vale parkway, heading out on the 13th august (preferably after 10am or so) and coming back on the 27th for as little as possible.
I have a YP railcard, though I can't remember if it's still valid then, so prices with and without would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

We're going to Ebbw Vale Parkway 10 days earlier. No advance fares are available at all, I guess since it was opened no-one bothered to set any! So, as posted by 323235 you have to split tickets.

Rogerstone isn't far from Newport actually! I plan to cycle between the two.
