Megatrain sells low-cost intercity railway tickets in the United Kingdom via the Megabus website. The available routes are by rail operators associated with Stagecoach Group (owner of the co-branded Megabus). Ticket sales began on 1 November 2005. == Service overview == Megatrain tickets are available on specific services operated by East Midlands Trains, South West Trains (both rail franchises wholly owned by Stagecoach Group) and Virgin Trains (49% owned by Stagecoach). The available services are those that are otherwise not busy, and tickets are priced using the yield management model typical of low-cost airlines, where the lowest fares are offered to those who book early or on less popular journeys. In addition to the point-to-point rail fares of Megatrain, Megabusplus provides combined coach and rail journeys between London and Yorkshire: buses link Huddersfield - Halifax - Bradford, Harrogate - York - Castleford and Hull - Scunthorpe to East Midlands Parkway railway station for travel by train to London. A similar scheme is available from The Trainline on Virgin Trains West Coast between London Euston and Manchester Piccadilly (Virgin Trains is 49% owned by Stagecoach). Prices are advertised as starting at £1, with a 50p booking fee. Tickets must be purchased in advance, via the Megabus website or by telephone. Megatrain tickets are available Monday to Saturday only, and not on Sundays or many public holidays. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Megatrain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
