Might be worth phoning Virgin Trains and National Express East Coast.. See if they can give you a group discount for the 15 of you.

You'll be able to get it for pennies if you do the 15 persons booking all at once.

Have you thought about a minibus? Might be cheaper and quicker. Pauls Travel might be a good start...

About 13 of us did the same trip for a birthday a few years back, booked all tickets at the same time and got it for about £20 return.

newcastle to edinburgh, my mate booked it but did it by phone, you definitely get a decent discount for group booking.

Hartlepool to Newcastle will cost you the best part of 14 quid return each on the train if you're coming back on a different day. Better getting a mini bus to there or Darlo then taking it from there.

Great price- I'd snap their hand off for that.
