Megatrain from East Midlands? How do you find the tickets

[AnkleBoots]

On megatrain.com you can find very cheap fares on some services operated by East Midlands Trains (so you need to get yourself to East Midlands Parkway just south of Nottingham to benefit).

Is this true?

When I used it a couple of months ago, we were given our tickets on the coach when it pulled up at East Midlands Parkway.
On the way back it would be slightly easier, as we got given the tickets at the help desk at London.

I did quote the relevant bit.

The bit quoted does not even mention "coach", so is not relevant to the thread title.

You could try booking London to Chesterfield? Here's an example for £9.24 from 5th Feb.

Obviously, it wouldn't be permitted for you to leave the train anywhere other than Chesterfield.

You don't have to pay to access it.

The bit about Megatrain says this:

"On megatrain.com you can find very cheap fares on some services operated by East Midlands Trains (so you need to get yourself to East Midlands Parkway just south of Nottingham to benefit). Prices start at £1 (plus a 50p booking fee). Finding the deals on the website is hard work, but they are there."

So not very informative, or accurate.
