Virgin Train fares 28th Dec to 2nd January

UPDATE 27th December - Virgin's website is showing the Super Off-peak fares as being available on ALL Pendolino services between Birmingham and London and vice versa

Virgin Trains are offering a Super Off-peak fare of £22 return between London and Birmingham from Wednesday 28th December to Monday 2nd January. These are WALK-ON fares and are available after 2pm in both directions. Better still, the £10 First Class upgrade is possible on each leg if room is available once you have boarded the train. Thus, a First Class return is possible for £42.... NOTE that railcard reductions are also possible!

So, if travelling in the afternoon / evening both ways, it is cheaper NOT to book an advance fare...
