"Where ticket prices may have put people off in the past, we’re hoping to show that a trip to the capital doesn’t have to cost the earth.

“Travelling by train to London makes sense and eliminates the need to worry about parking. Our services begin early in the morning and finish late into the evening, allowing people plenty of time to enjoy a day out in the city.”

London Northwestern Railway will also be placing its own spin the wheel game at the Grosvenor Centre and shoppers will be invited to spin to win free prizes, including a free ticket, travel size wallet, or a reusable coffee cup.
