Split Tickets for greater savings
Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Stratford-Upon-Avon to Colchester, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.
Book in advance to save an average of 61%

By planning your trip from Stratford-Upon-Avon to Colchester ahead of time and securing your tickets early, you can save up to 61% on the cost of your travel.
Group travels to save 1/3
If you are travelling in a group, be sure to check out group travel discounts.
