  • Kids for £2

    Travelling with children aged 5-15?

Book your Off-Peak or Super Off-Peak ticket online and up to four children can travel with you for just £2 each on most journeys* across our network.

You can also take up to four children for just £2 each at off peak and super off peak times if you hold a valid season ticket*.

The discount will be automatically applied when you book your tickets online with the exception of certain journeys that cross London or if you are just buying child rate tickets as you already have the adult ticket for your journey. For these journeys, please visit one of our ticket offices where we will be happy to help.
