Is this the normal Xmas effect.
FWIW, they don't seem to be listing, advanced fares, only,"off-peak fares."
Will "advanced" (cheaper fares) be loaded later or should I take what I can get now?
The best I've come up with is 40 pounds o/w.
Harrogate-what a wonderful place to be visiting!!!!!
A standard harrogate to London fare is £230 odd if bought on the day or for a peak train or £341 1st class.
Are you looking on the east coast website directly?
