Here are some of our top tips to help you save money on your train travel.
Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%
Splitting your tickets involves purchasing separate tickets for different segments of your journey instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. This method is legal and can often result in cheaper fares. For example, if you are travelling from A to B, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than purchasing a direct ticket.

These discounts can save you up to 1/3 on off-peak fares, making your journey from Colchester to Chelmsford more affordable. Whether you're traveling with your family, friends, or colleagues, the group save options make it easier for everyone to enjoy the benefits of discounted fares while embarking on a memorable trip together.
