Ok, so i'm wondering about how to get a cheap train ticket. I think... Martin will have summat on his site I bet !!
So I go on National Rail, Megatrain.com and Trainline only to be quoted £67.50 return from Nuneaton Euston :eek:
Go to the station today and got a return for £29.20, cheaper still was £22.50 but restricted times on that fair.
Dont worry Martin I still love ya

To be honest, if anyone (Martin included!) managed to write a comprehensive article that told you how to get the cheapest trainfares in the UK every time, I'd die of shock!
The system is so ridiculously complicated and fragmented with far too many companies operating lines and ticket sales, it's difficult to figure out what's going on at the best of times. The whole thing seems to be a bit of a lottery in terms of ticket prices...0 -
