How to book cheap train tickets from Doncaster to Darlington

Split Tickets discount
It might seem unusual, but buying several cheaper tickets for different sections of your journey can result in substantial savings - and you won't need to move seats at all. Even better, Trip.com automatically finds and arranges these split tickets for you, so there's no complicated planning required.

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Explore a range of Railcards that typically offer 1/3 off most train tickets, including the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, as well as the 16-17 Saver, which offers 50% off. They’re easy to purchase and store digitally in your Trip.com app, meaning you're only ever a tap away from great savings.

Travel during Off-Peak train times
For a quieter, better-value trip, try to travel during Off-Peak hours rather than the busiest weekday periods. Although exact times can vary between train companies, the general rule is to avoid the 6:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM windows. At weekends and on bank holidays, Off-Peak pricing typically applies throughout the entire day.

Book in advance
Save up to 61% on your journey from Doncaster to Darlington by booking Advance tickets at least 1 week ahead. These tickets are typically available up to 12 weeks before travel, with savings subject to route availability and excluding Anytime fares.
Which train ticket types are available for this route?

Advance train tickets
Released up to 12 weeks in advance, these tickets are usually the most budget-friendly choice for savvy travellers

Anytime tickets
Anytime tickets offer complete flexibility, allowing you to travel at any point during the day without restrictions. They're ideal if your plans may change or you need full freedom when travelling.

First Class tickets
First Class tickets give you a more comfortable ride, with larger seats, extra legroom, and access to premium amenities such as refreshments or quieter carriages on many routes

Flexi Season tickets
Flexi Season tickets suit travellers who commute a few days a week, offering 8 days of unlimited travel in a 28-day period—which often works out cheaper than buying tickets on an individual daily basis
