I may have to travel from Manchester to Hull next week to collect a motorbike so checked the National Rail website for train tickets.
According to them an advance, off peak single was around 44 quid. I've heard on here about 'splitting' a journey and, given the suggested route involved changing trains at Huddersfield, tried two separate enquiries. The first from Leeds to Hull and the second from Manchester to Leeds arriving in time to make the connection. Less than 15 quid in total.
I thought that the National Rail site was supposed to help you find the cheapest fares available, anyone able to explain...?
