Northern has launched a three-day ‘flash sale’ with five million tickets for journeys across the North of England, including Lancashire, up for grabs from just £1.

Flash sale tickets are valid for travel between Wednesday, January 10, and Friday,  March 1. They must be booked at least seven days in advance of travel.

Mark Powles, commercial and customer director at Northern, said: “The flash sale extends to every corner of our network, with £1 tickets up for grabs for both local and longer, cross-country journeys.

“We hope the sale will inspire people to get out and about across the region, for those moments that matter most – days out with the family, catch-ups with friends or for no reason other than to enjoy the beautiful countryside and coastlines our region has to offer.

“As always, customers should book early to avoid disappointment. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.”

Northern is the second largest train operator in the UK, with nearly 2,500 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England.

Some of the journeys included in the flash sale are:

Tickets are on sale now and available until 4pm on Friday, January 5. Tickets can be purchased on the Northern website.
