We’re also offering a Pay in 3 for any purchases through PayPal when you spend £30 or more. With convenient digital e-tickets, these can be stored in your smartphone’s payment wallet for easy access.

 

Save time

The app allows you to find the TfW trains with the most space, so you can plan your journeys and get extra comfort. You can easily find guidance on our Delay Repay scheme if your train is delayed or cancelled. 

If you purchased an Advance ticket to travel on a TfW service (for all or part of your journey) using our app or website, you're covered by our Automatic Delay Repay scheme and you don’t need to submit a claim. Our system will identify if you're delayed by 15 minutes or more and create a claim on your behalf.
