Hi

Can anyone please help me with cheap tickets for Birminmgham to London trains on Saturday 12 January coming back on Sunday 13th?

The cheapest I have found is a saver return for £39.50 ( I have tired pricing it as 2 singles, no cheaper) but with all the cheap week day returns for £15 I was hoping to get something similar!!!

I have posted this in the Train forum too!

Thanks
My mind tends to wander............If found please return;)

I can spell...................I just cant type:confused:

    Have had a check on Ticket Machine at work.
    There are extremly limited advance purchase tickets that weekend.

    I can get it down to £29.00, and according to the ticket system there are only around 5-10 of these tickets left. You have to change at Coventry both ways.

    Standard Value Advance £14.50
    Origin:Birmingham New Street, 07:09
    Destination:London Euston, 09:04
