How to book cheap train tickets from Birmingham to Machynlleth

Travelling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Birmingham to Machynlleth during off-peak hours.

This often turns out to be more affordable than buying a direct ticket, and you won’t even need to leave the train… or often your seat!.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
