It does because I bought tickets got a future Southport to Hinckley return through trainsplit and picked up the paper tickets yesterday at Southport station

I find the Metro card bery useful - mind you I only have to wait 2 months to get my Senior Citizen card when I get to 60 :)

Funny how anything south of the Watford Gap AND near London gets funding whereas anything further North gets a promise which is then quietly cancelled

Your supposed to wait 5 minutes (I think).

YW

Its £12.00 for a day ticket (which you can use for one day at the weekend) or £20.00 for a 2 day weekend ticket.

Same here ! I live in an area where I can get the Liverpool Echo and so if people want me to get the tokens PM me

Thank you

Thats was why I advised OP to post here as I read the original post on Reddit

I successfully applied for this scheme. I have been sent a ticket sized plastic card with a unique number to identify myself and also asked to show my email acceptance AND proof of ID if stopped. The proof of ID is fun as I don`t drive and I wont carry my passport round with me , so my photo ID...

Southport to Manchester is a glorified branch line and therefore of no real interest to Northern.

Apologies your both right - I meant Saveaway NOT daysaver. I *think* its 10p more but its worth it because I can the bus home if the trains go Pete Tong

I agree , the £6.50 a day I pay for my Daysaver when I go into the office near Moorfields is a bargain ! - esp when I can use the ticket to go Southport to Sandhills and then the SoccerBus to/from Sandhills to Anfield when I go to watch my beloved LFC play.

Merseyrail wont extend to Preston as its out of the Mersey Metro Area ans therefore won`t pay for it

Around 1985 (I think).
