Gentlemen, I'm having to make a visit to York tomorrow, but am struggling with TPE and thetrainline websites as neither can give a fare from Guide Bridge.
Sorry for the short notice, but what would be my best bet so far as fares go?
2 adults and one child, with a family railcard. We need to set off sometime around 10 and return around 20:30-21:00.

Can you travel from nearby Stalybridge [[stn]SYB[/stn]] instead? If so, you will save about £5 off the total fare (Prices here: SYB - YRK CDR), and save about 25 minutes journey time each way plus interchange time at Manchester Piccadilly.

If not, you will need to double-back to Manchester Piccadilly (which is permitted by an easement). The Saver Returns that Prairie speaks of are now called Off Peak Returns (but the code, SVR, is retained).

If you would like to take advantage of an anomaly for a cheaper, but valid fare, I can advise you via PM of a ticket you can get, and a booking engine that will issue reservations. I know several people who use the tickets with no hassle at all.

Yes exactly. Sorry it still shows up on my Tribute SVR, but they are indeed called Off Peak Returns. What he said ^^^^^^
