Cheap train tickets from Birmingham New Street to Edinburgh

With a ticket from Birmingham New Street to Edinburgh being quite expensive, we wanted to highlight a few ways you can save when booking.

The best way to save is to book in advance. This will ensure you have options of travelling at different times of the day which can make a huge difference to the price you pay. Advance tickets go on sale around 12 weeks before the travel date. See our best fare finder for more information and we'll make sure you're booking with the best price.

If you have a Railcard you can save up to a third on your train travel across the UK So if you make a few long-distance journeys each year, it’s definitely worth signing up.

Remember that when you come to booking your ticket, book directly through the Avanti West Coast website or app. We don’t charge booking fees like some other services, saving you an extra bit of money each time you travel.
