How to book cheap train tickets from Cambridge to Hackney Central

Travelling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Cambridge to Hackney Central during off-peak hours.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip.

This method is perfectly legal and often doesn’t require leaving your seat.
