  • Any train travel wizards on the forum? Just looking at return tickets to Leeds for this weekend. 2 people with a two together Railcard is £125+ on The Trainline which seems absolutely insane. Is that just how much rail travel costs now or is there a way to make it cheaper?

  • Look for a time travel wizard instead and book them a couple of months ago. £60 odd each sounds about 'right' for this weekend.

  • Booking with the TOC ought to save you Trainline's cut at the very least.

  • If that's for both of you I'd say it seems pretty cheap, relative to the usual punishment dished out by our train system...

  • You could try https://www.splitticketing.com/ - but in general have found recently it's harder and harder to find cheaper fares. I'd planned to pop down to London from Liverpool for work a couple of times in the past few months and both times had to call it off as it was too pricey (granted left things until a couple of weeks before).

    You just need to know your exact plans three months in advance, all the time - easy..! /s

  • Have you left London before sir or madam?

    I'm paying about the same for a one person return to Llandudno this weekend which is only a little further.
