I’m interested in taking a train in Sept from London Kings Cross to Newcastle. We would stay in the Sunderland area 2-4 days. There are 3 adults and we will have a Two Together rail card.
I’m thinking of purchasing one way tickets there since we know which date and approximate time we want to leave and there are direct trains. It looks like we might be able to get cheaper tickets booking now.
Is there a disadvantage of booking one-way tickets VS return tickets?
I’ve never heard of LUMO. We were thinking of taking the LUMO train over LNER as the price is better, but I wondered if there were considerations I didn’t know about. I was looking on the LNER website to purchase directly, when I noticed the LUMO option. Can we buy directly from LUMO?
I expect we will need take the subway (metro?) or a taxi in to Sunderland. Any tips we should know about?
