Why purchase a Season Ticket with us?
Our Season Tickets offer you more than value for money, being an award winning Rail operator voted; 'Public Transport Operator of the Year 2008' and last year winning ‘The Innovative Transport Project of the Year for our Text Ticketing ’ we deliver a safe reliable welcoming and value for money service.
We know how important punctuality is to our passengers and we are proud that 95% of our trains run on time. We intend not only to keep them that way but also where possible improve further. We are continuing to invest in our trains, stations and infrastructure to increase capacity and are extending many car parks to match demand in commuter zones.
We have developed a range of value added products especially for our Season Ticket holders including a range of special offers negotiated with third party companies and our free journey check text alert service. Full details of which are below.
All of our Season Tickets can save you money on regular journeys. If you travel just 3 times a week a Season Ticket can work out cheaper than buying separate return tickets. We hope the links below will help answer any questions you may have. If not feel free to contact us on 08456 005 165.
