My first posting here, although I have been a long time watcher of this forum.
As a former booking clerk I know a lot about ticketing, but after being asked a question in my local last night, I realised how things had moved on in the last few years.
I was asked if I knew of the cheapest return ticket from Stoke-on-Trent to Shrewsbury, the name Saver was being put forward, but I was able to provide the new name of Off Peak Return. So that is what is being obtained for this afternoon.
I thought that this morning I would try to find if there were any ways to reduce the cost of travel, something which seems to be easiler said than done! After feeling like I was swimming through glue on the National Rail site, I thought is there is any way I can access an on line fare manuel can anyone please advise. Or provide details of spilts or booking to different destinations to provide cheaper fares.
Many Thanks.
