The catch is that such prices are almost unavailable.
Tried the best with late November departures and lowes found was £29 , not
cheap for such inconvenient travel

For late November, cheapest TRAIN fare available right now is GBP 37
(Standard Class Off Peak 2 Return) for a *return*. Single journeys are
showing as low as GBP 16.00.

Buses would have to be really cheap to compensate for the longer journey
times.

November (sat 27th) for the GBP 1.50

Maybe not that long a journey, but I've gone from Manchester to Glasgow
several times now on megabus for around £2.50 return, and the journey
was very pleasant.

The National Express offer is their response to the competition from
Megabus (www.megabus.com). Limited availability on both.

I wasn't talking about the bus ride - it was the going to Glasgow part
