<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/travel-with-large-groups/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Group travel deals</a>

Group travel deals

If your party consists of 3 to 9 travelers, you can benefit from group travel discounts — often up to a third off regular ticket prices. It's a great way to make trips from Wigan to Eccles more affordable for friends, family, or work groups.
<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/uk-train-off-peak-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Travel during Off-Peak train times</a>

Travel during Off-Peak train times

We'd strongly suggest avoiding rush hour crowds by traveling on Off-Peak services, often leading to a cheaper and more peaceful journey. Exact timings vary between providers, but in general, skip traveling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. Off-Peak rates are available all day on weekends and bank holidays.
