    It will take you 2:40 minutes from London Euston Station to Liverpool Lime Street via Manchester Piccadilly (easiest route).

    It will cost you only £27.00 return (wow did not realize it was that cheap, I may come down to London some time).

    Enjoy tour time in the great city of Liverpool.

    Mr Hello’s knowledge of railway geography is somewhat lacking: trains from London Euston to Liverpool Lime Street do NOT go anywhere near Manchester, unless there’s engineering work on the line (which sometimes takes place on Sunday; certainly there are none currently shown for 12th September). Standard class off-peak (all trains on Saturday) return fare is £66.40 - get 1/3rd off if you have a 16-25 railcard, so about £44.20 in that case. Advance fares, for travel on specific trains, can be as little as £11 one way, but there won’t be many seats at those prices - book early if you want them. Journey time 2h08m on most trains, some take 2h29m. Don’t travel back later than the 19:48 from Liverpool, otherwise you’ll be spending most of the night in the waiting rooms of Wolverhampton, Northampton or Manchester Piccadilly stations!

    The chap above has it right - and Mr Hello is a little bit dim.
    The earlier you book your train the cheaper it will be

    There are no flights from London to Liverpool; trains run hourly from London Euston to Liverpool Street and take 2 hours 10 minutes; the cheapest tickets are those you buy in advance for specific trains - you should do this as soon as possible. Go to the ticket office at Euston Station or
    An annual 16-25 railcard will give you a further 34% discount.
