How to book cheap train tickets from Edinburgh Gateway to Markinch

Traveling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Edinburgh Gateway to Markinch can result in significant cost savings.

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard
You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Edinburgh Gateway to Markinch for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16–25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard). Discover more here.
