Too early to be checking for tickets on that date.. 12 weeks before hand should get you the cheapest. But check if your valid for any railcard too

Hi Guys,

Not sure if this is in the right place but i could do with some help booking a return ticket for tomorrow (sat 5th) from Lancaster to Liverpool for 2 adults 1 child age 9 and 1 child age 2. I have never booked train tickets online so not even sure who to try.

Thanks in advance guys

No need to book - just buy at Lancaster station before departure - £16 per adult, £8 for the 9YO and the 2YO goes free.

Thanks for the advise,i actualy booked online direct with virgin as i could resrve my seats on the first and last leg of the journey although upon returning my train which should have arrived in wigan for the connecting train to lancaster was late so i missed the train we were booked on to lancaster and seat reservations we had made.

Thanks again :beer:

No, that's not the cheapest.

There are some Advance Singles available on your dates at £10 each way.

Admittedly there are more at £11.50 each way, but it is possible at £20.00 return.

Info from Southern Railway website.

Alternatively there are Advance Singles from New St to Milton Keynes at £3.50, together with Advance Singles from MK to Brighton at £6.75 each way.
So that's £20.50 return trip with the added benefit of avoiding London (via Kensington Olympia).
Those £6.75 tickets must be booked on the SR website mentioned above.
