Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Shotts to Manchester Piccadilly for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16–25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard).

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%
