Buying tickets

Rail tickets can be purchased online from sites such as qjump. Thetrainline.com is no longer recommended as the site only supports low-grade 40-bit encryption (most web browsers now support 128-bit).

Tickets may also be purchased from most staffed rail stations or by calling the tele-sales line for your train operating company.

Tickets

Significant savings can be made if you book tickets >7 days in advance. A Railcard may save (a further) 33%.
The National Rail web gives details of the different types of tickets, and the conditions that apply. Be aware that a Standard Open can cost many times more than the cheapest ticket.

Promotions: some train operators may have appropriate special offers.
E.g., GNER's £5-£15 single promotion may benefit those travelling on the East Coast Mainline (Scotland, North East, Yorkshire, Grantham, Peterborough to London Kings Cross).
