How to book cheap train tickets from Preston (Lancs) to Warrington

Travelling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Preston (Lancs) to Warrington during off-peak hours.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

Split Tickets for greater savings

For instance, if you're travelling from Preston (Lancs) to Warrington, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. This method is perfectly legal and often doesn’t require leaving your seat.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
