How to book cheap train tickets from Salford to Macclesfield
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 Salford to Macclesfield 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 to save an average extra 30%
Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip.

This method is perfectly legal and often doesn't require leaving your seat.
Book in advance to save an average of 61%
Advance Tickets are usually released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can be significantly cheaper than tickets purchased closer to departure.

Travel in a group to save 1/3
If you are traveling in a group of three to nine people, take advantage of group travel discounts, offered by most train companies, for a discount of up to 1/3 on standard fares.
