Here are a few valuable tips to help you save money on your train travel.

Travelling during off-peak hours

Splitting your tickets involves purchasing separate tickets for different segments of your journey instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. This method is legal and can often result in cheaper fares. For example, if you are travelling from A to B, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than purchasing a direct ticket.

Did you know that purchasing Advance Tickets can significantly reduce your travel expenses? On average, these tickets can save you an impressive 61% on fares. The best part is that the earlier you book them, the greater the savings. It's recommended to secure your Advance Tickets as soon as possible, ideally up to 12 weeks in advance.
