GRAND CENTRAL NEW FARES STRUCTURE From May 18th 2008 Grand Central will introduce a new simple fares structure made up of a 'Peak' and 'Off Peak' fare. The peak fare will only apply if you travel to or from London on the 0641 Sunderland - London Kings or the 1650 London Kings Cross - Sunderland. GRAND CENTRAL CARNET TICKETS Frequent Peak Time travellers can make great savings with Grand Central’s new Carnet Ticket Book of 20 single journey/10 return journey tickets for turn-up-and-go-travel. Carnet tickets are valid on peak time trains but save 15% - 30% on published Grand Central prices.
