Overview
- Northern reports an "incredible" first 24 hours, with thousands of £2 adult and £1 child tickets already sold.
- Early booking hotspots include Leeds, Manchester, Blackpool, Preston, York, Hull, Carlisle, Sheffield, Liverpool and Newcastle.
- The three-day booking window runs from 8am Tuesday 30 September to Thursday 2 October, covering travel between Monday 6 and Friday 24 October 2025.
- Tickets can be bought via Northern’s app, website, ticket offices and ticket machines, and a fare‑finder tool experienced high‑demand outages while core channels remained available.
- Conditions include no travel on strike days, no stacking of railcard discounts and a finite allocation that will not be replenished once sold.
