How to book cheap train tickets from Oban to Markinch

Travelling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Oban to Markinch can result in significant cost savings.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Oban to Markinch for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16-25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard). Discover more here.
