think under 5 is free and child prices are up to 15 or 16 so think youll do it for the £50 you might have to catch certain train times though just out of the busiest |

Use the website thetrainline.com or any of the others which are advertised (google them) You say you are NW based but do not give an area so I cannot be specific and I know it sounds expensive but have you considered hiring a people carrier for the weekend?, lots of companies are feeling the pinch and are offering really cheap weekend rates, alternatively a taxi might be cheaper and more flexible. I dont use the trains much as they tend to be expensive if booked within a week of the day I am travelling, I prefer the coach system which is usually cheaper and takes slightly more time to get you there. |
