Is it just me or are the trains for Oldham (ie. a return to Manchester Piccadilly) at a fixed rate regardless of time? With a young person's card they are still all £49, I swear I've done that trip loads of times for £35/40 at late notice.
It's also looking the same for Carlisle (£55) except for one train which leaves London at 7:30am.

Unfortunately over the August and easter bank holidays the train companies are not too generous with the cheap tickets, demand at peak times methinks
Ahh, good point. I don't particularly want to go back to Oldham but if there's even a miniscule chance of promotion there, I have to go. £55 to Carlisle I'm not that bothered about.
For anyone doing Huddserfield, there are still some cheap-ish tickets on the 0903 and 1003 to Wakefield, then it's another fiver and 35 minutes or so over to the Galpharm.

Megabus...on the train is £9 single, in to Huddersfield at 12.45
Nice, cheers. I saw you wrote that above and instantly thought "5 hour stopping service" but that's actually decent timing, especially since I'd be waiting around in Wakefield anyway.

For Scunthorpe I think it was return to Doncaster. Then Doncaster to Scunthorpe return. Got Huddersfield down to 45.00 and Scunthorpe to 48.00.
Didnt bother in the end, and no idea if it'll still work. Direct trains were coming up around 70-80.
Just looked:-
11.48 from London gets to Doncaster at 13.24 £22.00 single
13.37 from Donny gets to Scunny at 14.02 £10.20 return.
18.08 from Scunny gets to Donny at 18.38
19.28 from Donny to London, arrives 21.09 £22.00 single.
Total £54.20.

Neither are selling well
For Oldham, if you do London to Birmingham return, and then Birmingham-Manchester return that I believe is good as well
