How to book cheap train tickets from Thornton Heath to Birmingham
Traveling in off-peak train times

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.
