How to book cheap train tickets from Carlisle to Kilmarnock

Traveling in off-peak train times

Taking advantage of Off-Peak train tickets is another effective way to save on your train journey from Carlisle to Kilmarnock.

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%

Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Carlisle to Kilmarnock, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
