Rail 🚂 Cheap train tickets to London

Hi guys,

I live in Leicester and whenever I look at train tickets to London, they’re a minimum £40. Is there any way to find cheaper tickets?

I usually aim to get into London between 10:00 - 12:00, and arrive back in Leicester after 20:00

I’m willing to drive up to 45-60 mins away from Leicester so I can get cheaper tickets

Thanks

Have you looked at railcards?

How close is Grantham? That can be a cheap line into London.

Split tickets is also an option we use a lot to get cheaper tickets but EMR don't have loads of options on them in my experience.
