Roll up for cut-price rail deal
Published: 17:00, 16 January 2016
A NEW £5 advance fare has been launched by ScotRail – its biggest ever discounted ticket.
The fares will be offered on a first come, first served basis. The announcement follows the launch of a new £16 flat rate ticket for members of ScotRail’s Club 50 scheme. It allows passengers to travel anywhere in Scotland.
Five pound fares were pledged by Abellio – the Dutch owners of ScotRail – as part of its winning franchise bid. Tom Norris, group operations director for Abellio UK, said: “This fare offer was an important element of our successful bid for ScotRail and we are confident that these £5 fares will be extremely successful.”
