    How does the £91.10 breakdown....i.e. what is the adult price?
    Just that I've been looking and the lowest I found last week for Donny to Kings Cross was about £36 each and that was setting off at about 07.30.
    Mind you, I am a complete novice at finding low rail fares.....

    If there's two adults and its someone who you go with regularly away from home on rattler.. Get a 2together railcard.

    30 quid for a year. Third off prices.

    Including young uns rail card 105 return.

    Leave 0838 arrives about half ten in smoke.

    Return at 1904 back to donny 2044.

    Or if your a snob like me... About 160 wi same in 1st class.

    Without a rail card, it's £141 on same train.

    If anyone's wondering how to do this then go to https://www.virgintrainseastcoast.com/travel-information/cheap-ticket-alerts/. Only available between Virgin Trains EC served stations e.g. Doncaster and King's Cross. Otherwise as a rule of thumb advance tickets come out 12 weeks in advance, which is when they're cheapest.
