Didn't realise.

Whey if you go on the train and you fall in the right age group, you should get one of your parents to look at the annual family & friends railcard.
Pick up the leaflet at the station for the discount code, but order online.
For £27 you get 50% of your fares and they got 1/3 each off theirs.
You can be in pocket after one journey, depending where you go.

The York Ftr's are now in Leeds (or they were the last time I was there). Apart from that, I don't think there is much different or unique in either place.
York, Leeds and Manchester all have a stack of shops. York has some unique, independent stores and the other two, giant chain stores.
York has the railway museum and model railway museum, Leeds has the Armouries and Manchester an indoor Legoland...

Thanks very much! - And no, I don't think my parents would be happy me going down to Leeds/York/Manchester on my own at my age

York and Leeds are now my two options. Looking at fares, it would cost us £83 there and back (great value) if we went on Wed 30th October. Megabus there, train back to Leeds.

I fancy Leeds City Museum too, four floors of exciting stuff apparently. Any idea what Megabus I would get if I went to Leeds at 0840?
