Which website for rail tickets - Britain and Ireland

I will be buying train tickets for Scotland, Northern Ireland, Ireland and England in advance and want to confirm the correct websites.

ScotRail: Scotland
Translink: Northern Ireland
Irish Rail: Ireland
National Rail: England

Or would it be better to use a site like Loco2 or Trainline for all. Is there someone else?

Thanks

For England and Scotland http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/ will direct you to a train operating company (TOC), and it’s from one of the train operating companies where you buy tickets.

Any TOC will sell you each other’s tickets so just choose one TOC to save signing up to several websites e.g. https://www.lner.co.uk/ - will sell you tickets for all trains in England and Scotland.
