Rail passengers could save millions of pounds a year thanks to a secret computer code which finds cut-price fares normally hidden from the public.
Founders of the website TrainSplit.com are helping travellers buy cheaper ‘split tickets’.
This means that instead of buying one ticket for a journey, passengers can break their trip up into legs – offering a lower combined fare while travelling on the same train.
The website’s founders believe rail companies are overcharging passengers on 42 per cent of tickets sold.
And they say their tool can save an average of 22 per cent on the fares listed on train company websites.
