Answer 2

The saver ticket as detailed in previous answers is the cheapest ticket bought at the time of travel. However trains to Leeds are frequent so there is a good quota of much cheaper advance purchase fares on most services. They can be purchased at the London terminus Kings Cross Station, at many other major stations or through the website of the company operating London to Leeds trains: -

Answer 3

The economical way to do this trip, is NOT to buy a through ticket.

Buy a ticket for stage journeys.

For instance, if the through fare is say £150, and the train stops at various places on the way, buy tickets to the first stop.

Then a ticket to the next stop, and so on.

That way the fare works out a lot cheaper.

Answer 5

It depends on when you intend to travel. In the immediate future you would have to pay £74.80 for a saver return (increasing to £79.20 in the New Year) If, however, you do not intend to travel for about a month you could do it much cheaper by buying 2 singles For example, on the 17th January there are singles to London on the 10.40 (arr 13.10) for £11.25 and a single for your return on the 18.33 and 19.30 for £28.50. These must be booked in advance however.

Answer 6

depending on when you are going if you book in advance you could get a return for as little as £20(subject to availability), and these tickets are totally inflexable which means you are assigned to one train going north and one train going south.And if you book far enough in Advance you may be able to treat yourself and get a First Class Advance Purchase ticket.

A Saver Return is your cheapest option for a walk up fare and will cost £74.80 return (return is valid for one month) but you cannot travel out of London before 09.30.

A Business Saver will cost £114 return (return valid  for a month) but you cannot leave London before 08.15.

A Standard Open Return will cost 185.00 and has no time restrictions.

If you want to travel early to have most of the day you can mix your tickets and travel up on Standard Open single which is half of the Standard Open fare and mybe get a Saver Single back which is usually a pound cheaper than the Saver Return fare.
