Group Save from Thatcham to Swindon Saturday 3rd October

Hi All,  I need to take 2 adults and myself to Swindon on the above day.

What's the cheapest way of doing this? Is Group Save an option or is that out because some services may be crammed full due to the rugby?

Regards

Dave

Groupsave would only generally be banned on tickets to stations where games are being held - intermediate travel on trains serving games destinations generally doesn't attract a ban. Check with GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway).

GroupSave being offered online ... and if you have any fear that might be a mistake, buy there and print out the agenda / schedule to carry with you.  And I couldn't find any splits or overruns that would reduce the cost ... which in an ideal world is really how the fare system should work.

Assuming it's a Day Return:

Thatcham - Didcot Parkway, Off Peak Day Return ^5.70ea GroupSave
Didcot Parkway Swindon, Off Peak Day Return ^7.15ea GroupSave

Total: ^12.85ea GroupSave

Actual total for all 3 adults be slightly more than 3x ^12.85 due to rounding up.

You MUST travel on services that call at Didcot Parkway.

If you want the flexibility of any service from Reading to Swindon then the through Thatcham - Swindon Super Off Peak Return at ^16.05ea GroupSave.
