    You can use the family railcard, even though the child is under 5 and doesn't need a ticket, you can buy a child ticket and benefit from the discount to the adult fare. However, I have had a quick look on the national rail site and there doesnt appear to be a train from Crewe that will get you to Stansted in time on the 1st.

    It might be better to drive down, parking will cost £25 using THIS link and putting egg in to the code box.
