    How do you use this I put my locations in and it's £50 Stoke to Bradford cheaper take the car and you can take 5 people
    Magurdrac's avatar
    Taking 5 people to Bradford when they live in Stoke? Haven't they suffered enough?!
  3. nimbusgamer's avatar
    You can still save even if only part of your journey is with Northern, consider splitting your tickets.

    For example, for Wigan to London, you could get Wigan to Stoke-on-Trent for £0.50-£2 (Northern), then Stoke-on-Trent to London for standard fare (West Midlands).

    Anything from Newcastle?
    neversay's avatar
    That's a sensible idea.

    Good if you're planning to travel at 6am
  6. biagrin's avatar
    Literally cannot find anything. Same as last time. Couple of years ago got a load of tickets to go somewhere every weekend for about 5 weeks. That was the last time the train was affordable

    Good luck with these tickets. Waste of money using northern. All you ever hear over the tannoy is "we regret to announce that the insert time northern train has been cancelled". Then if one arrives, everyone has to travel on the two carriage train that should've been 5 carriages. Northern has to be the least reliable service out there.
    gary.forebanks's avatar
    I've always used these flash sales over 2 years and no trains out of about 40 have ever been cancelled

    Anyone managed to get Manchester to Newcastle at all?

    Tried Sheffield to York, Leeds, Scarborough different dates and nothing, all coming up at full price
    Canary0500's avatar
    There is lots of availability for Sheffield to York e.g. on 19th Sept. When searching you need to go on advanced search options and then select 'our trains only', then it should show more of the sale tickets.
    50923474_1.jpgReturn times are limited though, either at 17:15 or 21:23. (edited)

    Load of crap
  11. ebble's avatar
    Needle in a haystack job finding these cheap fares. Pointless offer. Poor website as usual from train companies.
  12. CrudBucket's avatar
    Good if the train you book decides to turn up
    Coadnew's avatar
    If not u get the next one
  13. Dryrain's avatar
    Strikes have killed using trains no longer reliable shame as I was a big supporter before but never again.

    Thank you

    Donny to Hull Saturday in Ocober £1.50. Bloody marvellous find
  16. canttouchthis's avatar
    Good sale. But when u add kids when getting the tickets the cost is quite high...you no longer can get the sale price.

    I've ordered tickets as "adults" for my kids. I hope the conductor isn't too picky when checking our tickets

    Last time they had this on I was able to select Blackpool as one of the destinations. This time it isn't included (edited)
    Jessica321's avatar
    Blackpool is included
    I've just done a search Preston to Blackpool on 12th Sept just to see if it works and there are some cheap tickets
    Depends where you are starting from
  17. thatscheap's avatar
    Just buy some 50p tickets and see if the train is delayed/cancelled and claim compensation.
  18. leonwright2k4's avatar
    The search filters etc should and could be so much better , like trying find a fart in a jacuzzi
  19. legodealsmad's avatar
    some good journeys for £1 when I took a quick look
    nazlfc's avatar
    What dates are you looking at and from to where? Tried this week and next and week from Manchester to Leeds nothing
  20. markefc69's avatar
    dont forget they only have to give 14 days notice to go on strike!
  21. daz1969's avatar
    Chester - Manchester £1 return & Chester - Leeds £4 return, Bargain Thanks OP
  22. aw08's avatar
    Any from Accrington...Lancaster...or Leeds

    So much easier...

  23. shivclicks1's avatar
    I will be visiting York on sunday-Thursday. I have booked York to Knaresborough return £2 for monday. is there any nice place for photography I can visit on Tuesday, more like a day trip from York? Thanks
    Jessica321's avatar
    Harrogate is nice and there are some cheap fares on 12th Sept
    Not sure about the photography part of your question in Harrogate though
  24. v5535's avatar

  26. sowotsdis's avatar
    Just returning from Southport to Manchester and the train breaks down. Crawled to Wigan where it was cancelled
    mp34life1's avatar
    Sometimes breakdowns happen sorry for the inconvenience.
  27. gary.forebanks's avatar
    I always book about 5 of these trips for me and my dog and again booked 6 this time
  28. Tibzor's avatar
    Thanks, got return from Leeds to Horton in Ribblesdale for a Pen-y-ghent walk, 2x return to Skipton and 2x return to Hull for a tenner in total. 5 Saturdays in a row for a day trip.
  29. MOCHAA's avatar
    I couldn't find a single one of these cheap fares the last time the promotion was listed but I'm willing to have a look and expect to be similarly disappointed. (edited)
  30. hewyuk's avatar
    Great offer, (HOT) useful for many... Just not me this time...
  31. burgundii777's avatar
    Anyone else having problems booking? None of the payment methods are working for me
    shivclicks1's avatar
    worked for me. booked York to Knaresborough . Mastercard
  32. mhuk011's avatar
    Anyone else having the issue of the child ticket not being the discounted rate?
  33. William_'s avatar
    Has anyone managed to get any Sheffield to Scarbourgh or Bridlington can’t seem to find any
    Fitzwiggle's avatar
    You need to split the journey. Look for Sheffield to Hull. Then book Hull to Brid.
  34. LeeWhitfield's avatar
    Horrendous dates selection. Poorest yet from northern.

    ‘Northern’ trains in London
  36. BlueCreek's avatar
    Useless train company, annoyingly the only train line I live near.
  37. leonwright2k4's avatar
    Any way of getting to north wales using these even if it’s split tickets ?
    katw's avatar
    Think that’s transport for wales trains, but if you can get a cheap one to Warrington bank quay, they run though there
  38. TheAshCoops's avatar
    Any tickets to the lake district?
    VictoriaJade's avatar
    Thats what I'm looking for
  39. AMETAF's avatar
    Has anyone actually found a 50p fare?

    All of mine are normal prices
