At Grand Central, tickets are flexible, easy to buy, simple to understand and offer great value for money.  Our Fair Fares policy means you’ll never pay more than our usual flexible Off-Peak or Anytime rates – even if you buy on-board on the day of travel. 

Remember - Grand Central Off-Peak and Anytime fares are flexible and refundable in most cases (please see our Passenger Charter)

Cheap Advance Purchase tickets from £12*

Like many train companies, we now also offer our passengers cheaper tickets if they can plan and buy in advance.  Grand Central Advance Purchase fares are now available from just £12 so customers have an even bigger choice of great value tickets.  These fares are only available in advance of travel and there are a limited number for each service available, so make sure you book early.

Customers can still buy on-board at our flexible usual walk-up price, so those who find it difficult or are unable to buy in advance are not penalised.
