You must book through clicking from the Virgin Red app. Click from the app. Scroll quite a way through to get to "Virgin Red Routes" , quite hidden. An excellent deal. Other routes like Glasgow, Chester, Liverpool and Preston available. You also get 1,000 bonus nectar points, which you will see mentioned o your nectar account or app, but is badly worded on there as it implies you can get the fares by clicking through from the Nectar site which you can't, you must click from the Virgin Red app.

Brilliant. However. It would be cheaper for me to buy tickets from Manchester to Euston at £40 return one adult 2 children. From Stoke to Euston return it's over £200. Am I ok to join the train at stoke do you think? I know I would have to get through the barriers but I'm presuming you could just say you are meeting family or not?? Thanks

Buy a cheap local ticket to get through the barriers at Stoke and when on the train show the Manc-Euston tickets and also when going through barriers at Euston.

You're not allowed and staff have got strict. Takes longer, but you could buy cross country advance singles to Birmingham , on any website , then get these red routes at £4 adult Birmingham to London. Or you could buy cheap on the day tickets to either Manchester or Birmingham. But Birmingham would be quicker and cheaper as you can get the £4 tickets.

Beware! You may get away with it but if they have already checked the tickets at Manchester they can and may demand you pay full price from Stoke to Euston. I used to travel every week from Preston to Euston, Lancaster to Euston eas and probably is significantly cheaper and more flexible. If the tickets had been checked from Lancaster (and they usually were) any trying to get on at Preston with a cheap Lancaster ticket was charged the full Preston to Euston price which could be up to £200. I ended up driving to Lancaster each week as it was so much cheaper and worth the extra car journey.
