One million tickets for train journeys across the North of England for just £1 in flash sale - how to get yours

The £1 fares are available on bookings made online or through the Northern app, while stocks last, for travel between Tuesday September 6 and Thursday October 20 2022*.

Mark Powles, customer and commercial director at Northern, said: “This is our way of helping to extend the summer holiday feeling by a further six weeks - getting people through until the start of the October half term.

“Whether it’s for a day at the seaside in Scarborough, a weekend in the historic city of Chester, a night out in Newcastle; or a walking holiday in the Lake District – these fares will get you where you want to be for less.

“Tickets are on a first come, first serve basis – so those looking to take advantage of these great £1 fares should book early to avoid disappointment.

"When they’re gone, they’re gone.”

The £1 promotional tickets must be booked seven days in advance of travel and are only available online, via Northern’s app and website.

The £1 sale fares are spread across Northern’s nearly 2,000 services a day – with between 5-10% of service capacity up for grabs at the ‘flash sale’ rate. Some peak time services are excluded – as are those that are already expected to be busy in line with events across the region.
