Hi all
I know I cannot buy advances yet and not so for a few weeks but I thought I'd best get an idea of what I'm likely to pay as I'm needing to get my accommodation sorted asap.
I'll be needing to travel to Norwich from Chinley/Chapel en le Frith on Friday 14th March, arriving by 6:30pm latest. I don't mind obtaining advances to/from Manchester, Stockport or Sheffield though if I need to but would have to use in conjunction with a single to/from these stations.
Two days later I need to travel from Great Yarmouth (GYM) (late as possible) to either Chapel en le Frith or Chinley. According to BRFares there ARE advances from CLY to NRW but I have done some searching and not seen them on any date in February, which worries me a little for March. I know there are know also from BRFares no advance flows exist for GYM, so would need a single somewhere, Norwich and an advance from there.
From walk up fares this can be done single to Worksop, single from Worksop with a Y-P Railcard, £10.20 and an Off Peak Return Worksop to Great Yarmouth, £39.55 giving a total of £49.75. This is the price I will to be beaten, my question, am I likely to beat it? I want to do this trip for under £40 if possible. As I said I know advances are not likely to be released for a few weeks.
