How to book cheap train tickets from St Helens to Eccles

Season tickets for frequent travelers
If you make the journey between St Helens and Eccles on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis, a season ticket is well worth considering. It gives you unlimited travel between the two stations at set times for 1 fixed cost, helping you save money while avoiding the hassle of buying separate tickets each time.

Split Tickets discount
While it may sound surprising, splitting your route into smaller segments and purchasing separate low-cost tickets can greatly reduce the overall fare, all without changing seats. The best part is that Trip.com does all the splitting and organising for you, removing any need for time-consuming research on your end.

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Save money on your journeys by choosing from a variety of Railcards, most of which give you 1/3 off standard fares. Options include the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, plus the 16-17 Saver which offers 50% off. You can buy and store them digitally in your Trip.com app, so big savings are always just a tap away.

Travel during Off-Peak train times
For a quieter, better-value trip, try to travel during Off-Peak hours rather than the busiest weekday periods. Although exact times can vary between train companies, the general rule is to avoid the 6:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM windows. At weekends and on bank holidays, Off-Peak pricing typically applies throughout the entire day.
Which train ticket types are available for this route?

Advance train tickets
Available up to 12 weeks before the journey, these are generally the most cost-effective option for cost-conscious travelers

First Class tickets
First Class tickets offer a more premium travel experience, typically including wider seats, extra space, quieter coaches, and complimentary refreshments on many services for added comfort

Season tickets
Allowing unlimited travel between two stations with weekly, monthly, and annual options, you can save approximately 1/3 on train fares

Flexi Season tickets
Flexi Season tickets suit travelers who commute a few days a week, offering 8 days of unlimited travel in a 28-day period—which often works out cheaper than buying tickets on an individual daily basis
