Title: Train tickets - Nottingham to York
Post by: Pete Brooksbank on May 19, 2022, 12:10:32 PM
Sadly I missed out on match tickets, and to make matters worse for some reason my train tickets to York are not refundable!

So - long shot, I know - if anyone needs tickets up from Nottingham, I have these up for grabs:

Nottingham 09:38 -> 11:30 York
York 19:44 -> 22:15 Nottingham

I paid £47.30 for them, but I'll take less than that to get rid.

Oh Pete it would have been about £14 cheaper to get a day return Nottingham to Sheffield and then another one Sheffield to York and you could have travelled on any train!

Sorry by posting this I realise I might have reduced the price you can get even further...

I'm clearly too trusting of certain apps to show me the quickest/cheapest routes!

I've managed to obtain a ticket now for tomorrow by blind luck, so I will be using my stupidly expensive tickets after all!
