Passengers travelling between 2 railway stations in Greater Manchester and buying tickets on the day will be offered just 2 simple options:

  • Anytime – Single or Return

  • Off-Peak – Single or Return

Key points

  • The tickets are valid across all train operators serving Greater Manchester

  • It’s simpler and fairer, removing confusing operator-specific fares

  • All 96 stations in Greater Manchester are included

  • They are available online, at ticket vending machines and in ticket offices

  • Singles and Returns are available for both types, and Singles are half the cost of a Return

  • Advance tickets purchased before the day of travel and Season Tickets remain available

  • Railcard discounts, Duo, and Ranger and Rover products are unchanged

This all sounds great (except no more on-the-day advances, which is a clear loss) but I can find precious few details anywhere, unfortunately
