GWR announces discounted train tickets in January sale

Great Western Railway (GWR) has announced the launch of its January Sale, offering discounted train tickets across its network, including for passengers travelling from stations in Devon.

From 2 January to 9 January 2025, GWR is offering 150,000 discounted tickets, including 100,000 standard class and 50,000 First Class seats, at 50 per cent off its popular Advance fares. 

These tickets will be available for travel between 10 January and 13 April 2025, making it the perfect opportunity to plan a getaway in the New Year.

The discounted fares are available from stations across Devon, including Ivybridge, Plymouth, Exeter, and Okehampton, as well as other destinations along the GWR network, which stretches from Cornwall to London.

The offer applies to both standard and First Class tickets, with some journeys available from as little as seven pence per mile.

With the opportunity to explore winter coastal walks in Devon or take a city break to places like London, Cardiff, or Oxford, the GWR sale aims to inspire passengers to make the most of the New Year and take a well-deserved trip away.

Amanda Burns, GWR’s Sales and Marketing Director, said: “The January Sale is designed to encourage people off the sofa and away from the post-Christmas telly, to explore the fantastic sights of the south-west instead. Our Advance fares offer great value throughout the year, but in our sale you’ll find some great deals available on some of the lowest fares.”
