PASSENGERS are being offered an opportunity to travel between York and London with Grand Central for only £15.

The York-based train company is offering standard class £15 single fares, from Monday to Saturday until July 25, on specific trains on the East Coast route.

They are the northbound train leaving London King’s Cross from Monday to Friday at 8.04am and on Saturdays at 7.57am and the southbound train leaving York at 7.08pm Monday to Saturday.

A spokesman said the special offer was not valid for travel on Bank Holiday Monday, May 30, and tickets could be purchased in advance by going to www.grandcentralrail.com, from any staffed National Rail station or on board specific trains on the day of travel.
