How to book cheap train tickets from Lancaster to Buxton

Traveling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Lancaster to Buxton can result in significant cost savings.

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

Instead of purchasing a direct ticket from Lancaster to Buxton, you can split the route into two legs: A to C and C to B. This often turns out to be more affordable than buying a direct ticket, and you won't even need to leave the train… or often your seat!

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
