    I don't know whether your price can be beaten. What are you currently paying?

    16-25 railcard any use?
  • yes we currently get a discount from a rail card, its for my sister and shes on benifits so something cheaper would be welcomed is there any codes or any other form of transport that would be usefull for me?

  • there is travel by national express there is an adult pasanger with disable'ed pass which enables one passanger to travel at the same price

    i belive national express have coupons for savings online for advance bookings if anyone has some codes for discounts would be GREATLY appretiated

    thanks ever so much..

    Well.... you still haven't said what price you are currently paying.... i.e. what price you want to beat.

    Have you checked National Express coaches website?
  • its around 42£ for both persons right now This is without any discount codes and with disable'd persons rail card. just wonder if theres any cheaper way

    coaches are a litle cheaper but they run once a day at wrong times

    would have to spend 2 days there if went by coach
    one day i goes ay 9pm next day it leaves at 5pm or something like that

    If you can plan ahead, then Advance Single train tickets are available from £11.80 each way.
    That's the fare each way for two adults with one disabled persons railcard.

    To get that price you must book via East Coast Trains website.
  • is there no discount codes?

    is there no discount codes?
    So under £24 for two people return is no good then?
  • Or you can split tickets at York and avoid Darlington. Darlington isn't on the fastest route.
