We try and get our tickets on sale as early as possible so you can plan ahead and take advantage of our best prices. Sometimes we have to wait to release tickets due to engineering or other external factors that might impact our timetable.
If you're planning to travel on a day when our tickets aren't on sale, you can create a ticket alert. You'll get a handy email reminder when those tickets go on sale, meaning you can book an Advance ticket at our cheapest prices!
Sign in or create an account to set up your alert and we’ll send you an email when your chosen dates are available to book:

You can cancel or remove your alerts in your Account area at any time.

Why aren't our tickets on sale for your dates yet?
We try to put our advance tickets on sale as far in advance as possible to help you plan your travel and make sure you can take advantage of cheaper Advance tickets.
Sometimes, we have to hold some dates back if there is engineering planned that could impact the timetable to prevent us from selling tickets for trains that might not run.

We recommend that you create a Ticket Alert to find out when our Advance tickets are on sale.
