How to book cheap train tickets from Exeter to Derby

Travelling in off-peak train times

Taking advantage of Off-Peak train tickets is another effective way to save on your train journey from Exeter to Derby. These tickets are generally cheaper and can be used during quieter periods, typically outside of morning (06:30-09:30) and evening (16:00-19:00) rush hours on weekdays.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

With a Railcard, you can save up to 1/3 on most rail fares. There are different types of Railcards available, such as the 16–25 Railcard, the Family & Friends Railcard, and the Senior Railcard, each catering to specific groups of travellers. You can discover more about Railcards here.

Split Tickets for greater savings

Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Exeter to Derby, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.
