How to book cheap train tickets from Forres to Preston (Lancs)

Traveling in off-peak train times

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Forres to Preston (Lancs) 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). Discover more here.

Split Tickets for greater savings

Book in advance to save an average of 61%

Advance Tickets are typically released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can offer significant savings compared to tickets purchased closer to departure.

Travel in a group to save 1/3
