Big ticket sale sees the cost of some Northern journeys reduced by half

Half a million tickets for train journeys across the North of England are up for grabs with 50 per cent off the cost, Northern has announced.

 

The train operator has slashed the price of select Advance Purchase tickets as part of the nationwide ‘Rail Sale’ which starts today and runs until Monday.

Tickets are valid for travel between Sunday, 19 January and Monday, 31 March 2025 and are available from northernrailway.co.uk and ticket offices across the Northern network.

Alex Hornby, commercial and customer director at Northern, said: “The 500,000 Advance Purchase tickets we’re making available for the Rail Sale will be spread the length and breadth of our network.

“Northern already offers exceptional value for money – with the average price of a journey with Northern costing around £4 – and so we’re pleased to be able to offer these Rail Sale fares to our customers, making the train an even more attractive option.”

The Rail Sale is one of the first national events to mark the start of Railway 200 – a year-long campaign to celebrate the 200th anniversary of rail travel in the UK.
