For instance, if you're traveling from A to B, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket.
Traveling during off-peak hours
The important thing to note about Off-Peak train tickets is the designated off-peak time. In large cities and towns, the off-peak time for train travel from Derby to Bristol usually starts at 9:30 am from Monday to Friday, while in other areas it starts at 9:00 am.
