How to book cheap train tickets from Hackney to Reading

Traveling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Hackney to Reading during off-peak hours.

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Hackney to Reading 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 for greater savings

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. For instance, if you're traveling from Hackney to Reading, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. 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 typically released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can offer significant savings compared to tickets purchased closer to departure. By planning your trip from Hackney to Reading ahead of time and booking your tickets early, you can potentially save up to 61% on your travel expenses.
