Secret Fare: Travel between Bedford and London for less than a tenner


Who doesn’t love saving money?
Good news then as East Midlands Railway (EMR) is expanding its Secret Fare scheme.
There’s a raft of new discounted regional and intercity journeys where customers can save up to 50% by choosing a flexible departure time.
But left’s face it, it’s just Bedford we care about, isn’t it?
If you travel now between London St Pancras and Bedford Midland under the Secret Fare scheme, it will cost from £8.
How does it work?
Launched in partnership with Seatfrog, customers can book from when services become available – usually around three months before travel and up until two days before departure.
Tickets are available via the Seatfrog app or the dedicated Secret Fare webpage. Customers select their journey, date and preferred time window (morning, afternoon or evening). Seatfrog emails the confirmed train time and ticket 24 hours before departure.
Simon Pready, commercial director at East Midlands Railway, said: "Secret Fare is all about making it even easier to find a cheap price for your journey and providing those who have flexibility with more options.
"More than 11,000 customers have taken advantage so far, and we think these new fares are a great addition, with many cheap options now available across both our regional and intercity routes."
