Selling on train tickets I no longer need

Options
Is there any places or methods of selling train tickets I can no longer use?

Tickets are non refundable or the smaller refundable ones are wiped out with £10 cancellation fees lol

Be nice to get something for them and someone could get a bargain.

One is Doncaster to Edinburgh next Sunday, 1st class

    You're not allowed to sell them. You can buy a ticket for anyone, but the ticket is only meant for use by the person for whom it was bought for.

    However, in practice, giving a completely unused ticket to a friend/family member is tolerated.

    But then nobody will know really and it's very unlikely the new ticket holder will have any trouble.

    I'd sell it, but not on ebay.

    Take care posting the details of the tickets you have here.


    Visitors from the hectors website have previously suggested flooding the trains with their mates when this has previously been discussed to catch the devil travelling on a private sale ticket!

    Would that be the website where they have a two face attitude, boasting about letting their fare dodging work colleagues travel for free without a ticket, but at the same time taking a holier than thou attitude to everyone else?
