Glasgow - Keighley

[motherwell334]

Hi Guys,I plan to go down to the KWVR sometime during the summer but on checking the advantix it is giving me two options

Glasgow - Keighly via applby £12.80 with priv discount
Glasgow - Keighly via carlisle £32.80 with priv discount

Now as im still trying to get used to the routing guide does via appleby mean than i must go via leeds and avoid carlisle altogether..



Many thanks

Via Appleby will mean changing at Carlisle for a train on the S+C to Keighley.

cool so going via apply fare is cheaper than going via carlisle when im having to change at carlisle anyway

Both are valid via Carlisle.

The via Carlisle is also valid via Preston (whilst still being valid via Appleby).

There's also a via Leeds which is valid via Preston and Leeds or Newcatle and Leeds.

Quick Question : You have priv discount from Glasgow? Do you work for First Scotrail?

Yes I work for Scotrail as a TE but as I said I'm still trying to get used to the routing guide.. I havnt yet got the tickets but was going to see if I could talk nice to the TM and see if he would allow free travel... But as you know there are some Jobsworths so I wouldn't just hop on and show my passes!

You could save money by taking the Glasgow to Carlisle Service that goes via Dumfries?

then all you would require would be a Carlisle to Keighly Single, or you could use First TPE?
