The Northern Rail tokens are the same as last time so if you have any from the last promotion these can be used too.

Forget the gyms, fad diets and New Year's resolutions because until the 31st of January, you can save a further 25%* on all First TransPennine Express Advance Purchase tickets.
That's a massive saving on travel right up to 28th March 2015. So get your skates on and visit tpexpress.co.uk/sale, because the resolutions will wait, but our Winter Sale won't.
Terms & Conditions
The 25% discount applies to advance purchase tickets bought on First TransPennine Express services between 2nd January 2015 and 31st January 2015. Tickets must be for travel between the 3rd January 2015 up to and including the 28th March 2015 and must be purchased through the website link www.tpexpress.co.uk/sale
Discount is only available on tickets routed TPE Only and TPE & connections, not valid on any other types of tickets.
Advance purchase tickets bought via other parts of the website www.tpexpress.co.uk or other sales channels will not be subject to the 25% discount.
The 25% discount is not available on student advance tickets.
Advance purchase tickets are available on the majority of longer distance First TransPennine Express journeys. They must be purchased before 18:00 at least 1 day prior to travel.
Due to the limited availability and popularity of these tickets, please book early to avoid disappointment.
Advance purchase tickets are valid only for the train service for which they are booked.
Savings on advance fares verse purchase on the day.
An administration charge may be levied if a change is made to your journey.
Refunds not available
For just £10 (£5 for kids*) you can travel anywhere with Northern Rail for a day. or make a weekend of it for just £17.50 (£8.75 for kids*)
To qualify for this special offer:
- Collect two tokens from the paper. Tokens will be printed until January 23, 2015.
- Two tokens allow you to buy up to 4 Northern Rail Day Ranger tickets or Weekend rover tickets.
- Travel available January 24 - March 15, 2015 (excluding February 14-22). All tickets must be for travel on the same day/weekend.
I read in this morning edition of North Wales rail newsboard, the over 55s ticket is back for a short period.
I'll let Charlie Hume the editor explain,
If I could guarantee the loco hauled will be running, I'll do Wrexham/Chester/Holyhead/Manchester and return. So I'll book on the day to ensure the 0950 has left Piccadilly in its mark3 best suit and not a dressed down 175.

London midland great escape is back.
7th Feb to 1st march.

£15 Monday to Thursday, £20 Friday to Sunday.
Interestingly, all mention of Club55 has disappeared from ATW's website...
Railcard holders save an "extra 20% - bargain". Quite. :roll: Less and less attractive every time.
I thought that, at first, it came up with the correct page, but the prices quoted were the standard fares!

Arglwydd, if you get the Club 55 page up, click on the "Home" tab and that booking form works for me - "ATWCLUB" appears in the Promotional Code box below the Railcards box.
Pob hwyl
Last night whilst on 16:50 Waterloo - Exeter was chatting to a guy who stated from FEb to Apr South west trains are doing a £15 return anywhere on their network offer - has anyone else heard or know of this ?
There will be a £15 day return offer. Tuesdays-Saturdays only 24th February-4th April. Must be purchased at least a day in advance and not valid past Salisbury or Bournemouth.

No railcard discounts are available. Travel won't be restricted to the booked train, the tickets will take the restrictions of the First Class Off-Peak Day Return. (Not Valid arriving Waterloo before 1000, or departing between 1600 and 1900.) The reason given for the extra restrictions to travel past Bournemouth this year are because of engineering work taking place along the line.When these sort of offers are being discussed by the TOC there must be somebody who says something along the lines that we mustn't be too generous in what travel we allow for this price ....
If the lines to Weymouth and Exeter had been included I suspect the take up would be greater and loss of revenue minimal.
I wonder if railcard discounts will be available and will journeys be restricted to booked trains ?
It gets more restricted each time. Soon it will barely beat the network card discount. Also seemingly not during Feb Half Term unlike usual. Based on previous ones they'll be no railcard discount. I know beyond Salisbury caused overcrowding so that's why that got canned but I never saw trains beyond Bournemouth struggling for capacity, particularly in winter.
Worth noting that Northern Rail have added a new restriction to the offer from last time where you can only book the tickets 3 days in advance. My journey next weekend I can't book tickets for until mid-week now (I've got to rush to the station from work before the ticket office closes I guess).
I don't always read the full T & C, But I have a already used 1 rover which I booked a week ahead and my next is booked for 6 March, bought from Meadowhall Station no problems.
