Thank you in advance for your help.
I know it's too early yet to get tickets for train travel July 23rd, but looking at other dates (for pricing/schedules) I am finding quite a difference in ticket prices. The "cheapest standard fare" is as low as £15.00! Other prices for trains at different times (same day) range from £112.90-----64.70
That is a significant savings! Is this for real? I know from past experience buying train tickets for Italy that there are indeed great prices for advance sales.
Another question, is there much difference/advantage in going First Class vs Standard?
I'm looking at Birmingham New Street travel to Edinburgh Waverly
Should I feel confident buying tickets directly from https://www.thetrainline.com/ ??
I did sign up with a username and password on their website and also signed up for Ticket Alert.
Thank you for your help!
