How to book cheap train tickets from Blackpool South to Edinburgh
Traveling in off-peak train times

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%
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.
