- Children: Under-fives travel free of charge, while children aged 5-15 enjoy 50% off standard fares. Families can save more with a Family & Friends railcard, offering a third off adult fares and 60% off child fares, while older teens can also travel half-price with a 16-17 Saver railcard.
- Pets: Passengers can bring up to two pets on board free of charge. Dogs must be kept on a lead or transported in a secure carrier, and all pets should stay off the seats.
