    Just tried the app on SAL to PLY on a weekend.

    Says no spilt available (standard rate £54.50), however when playing around with a spilt at Axminster/Honiton, I can get it down to £25.10 (excluding Network Card discount) + £9.80

    Any advances on £26.05 for this journey from Salisbury to Plymouth on a weekend.



    I can't make sense of your fares - but a possibility is a through advance ticket Salisbury to Plymouth at £24 next weekend, maybe £17.50 a bit further in advance

    Fares from National Rail Enquires website.

    £16.55 (Salisbury to Axminster with network railcard), £9.80 for Axminster to Plymouth, so £26.05 for a return ticket.

    You want a DAY return - I was looking at singles and going one day coming back the next.


    Anyway - £10 day return SWT winter saver offer Salisbury to Axminster or Honiton

    Then the £9.80 off peak day return to Plymouth


    So £19.80

    I was looking for when the Winter Sale offer had ended (although I couldn't buy a winter sale ticket to Honiton tickets from the self-serve machines, gets as far as Axminster with the "SW route only" selection)

    (The plan is to get down to Plymouth to purchase a 'ride cornwall' ranger ticket and spend a good few hours roaming around Cornwall before heading back, most likely in April/May time when the days are longer, if that makes any sense)

    Gotcha now


    SWT did have a very similar offer last August - if you can hang on until then and they repeat it it's an option
