Traveling from Newcastle to York or Leeds
Hi everyone, I will be traveling to Newcastle on the 14 May. This is my 1st time in England.
I would like to know how much does it cost to travel to Leeds or York for a full day trip.
Hope anyone can give me good advice.
Thanks in advance.
Re: Traveling from Newcastle to York or Leeds
www.nationalrail.co.uk is the offical site which provides train times, details and fares for the whole of the UK.
Newcastle to York takes around an hour. There are frequent direct trains and standard return fare is 26.40GBP You can get two singlestotalling 15GBP, but these must be bought in advance (by 6pm the night before travel)and restrict you to certain trains. The website gives details.
You can also travel by coach (long-distance bus). this is cheaper, but ttakes longer (and is obviously prone to any traffic delay). Journey takes 2.5 - 4+hours (depending on departure time/route) and costs 15.60GBP. www.nationalexpress.com for times, fares and online booking (recommended).
York has so much to see and explore (see my York VT pages) that it really is worth paying the extra train fare to maximise the time you can spend in the city.

As Leics says York is so easy to get to. I would not really recommend Leeds - there is not a lot for the tourist in the city itself.
Travel Tips for Newcastle upon Tyne
Plaque on the Grey Column
This column was erected in 1838 to commemorate the services rendered to his country by Charles, Earl Grey, K.G., who, during an active political career of nearly half a century, was the constant advocate of peace, and the fearless and consistent champion of civil and religious liberty. He first directed his efforts to the amendment of the representation of the people in 1792, and was the Minister by whose advice, and under whose guidance, the great measure of Parliamentary Reform was, after an arduous and protracted struggle, safely and triumphantly achieved in the year 1832."
Leazes Terrace
Leazes Terrace was built in 1834 by Richard Grainger. It was at one time (and maybe is still) used by the University as a residence. It is very close to the football ground, the cantilever stand almost seems to overhang the houses.

Newcastle United Football Club are pride and glory of the North East.
Despite having the loyalist following in the country, tromendous football ground, certain European recognition and very good set of players, NUFC still fail to deliver trophies to the long-time suffering Mags. Its 36 years now since last piece of silverware was brought to St James' and almost 80 years since the last championship title.
Even in mid-week NUFC is the casual and most important topic for conversation for majority of the locals. It is a definite landmark in the city.
SJP is a must visit, although atmosphere is not as good as it used to be.
If possible, try to obtain tickets for one of the away games - to hear Geordies in full voice and really have an unique day oot.
Tickets stand at £25-30, away fans are located in the Leazes upper corner. Bring a black and white scarf and good voice
Escape through the square window.....
Bessie Surtees house is actually 2 houses of the 16th and 17th century which once belonged to merchants when this area was at it's most prosperous.
The buildings are mainly unfurnished, but many original architectural features remain. Such as an impressive wooden staircase and some gorgeous (yes, Sourbugger did use that word) wood panelling and ceiling work. Don't forget the finely carved fireplaces either.
If you want to know about Jacobean domestic architecture then this is you place.
Bessie Surtees herself was a well known local figure in 17th century Newcastle, apparently eloped through a window to marry John Scott, a young man of whom Bessie's father disapproved, but who later became Lord Eldon (as in the Name of the shopping centre and square)
The house is down on the Quayside opp. the swing bridge. Admission FREE
