A question about : need a train to norwich from birmingham
Hi guys just wondered if you have any moneysaver tips. basically i need to get to norwich tomorrow (friday) and back on saturday from birmingham.
im fairly flexible on times but i cant really leave before 1pm
the trainline was quoting around 68 pounds which i could not believe.
my friend at the university of east anglia says it normally costs him around 40.
any advice, oh and what train will i get? will it just be a standard centro one or will it be virgin voyager or what?
Best answers:
- Unfortunately you wont be likely to find any deals going out tomorrow. Your friend may well pay Ј40 normally, but that would probably be an APEX fare booking outside 14 days. Unfortunately even National Express dont do Birmingham to Norwich.
PJ - actually there is a direct National Express service leaving Birmingham at 12:35 which costs Ј36.50 return. Doubt if it meets your requirements though especially as it takes 6 hours & the return journey is at 9:25am
personally I think you are going to have to pay the full whack - Cheapest saver fare via
www.centraltrains.co.uk
is Ј54.90.
Be aware you have to change at either Peterborough or Ely on each leg.
There used to be a direct service,but Central trains get worse as time goes on.
