Chiltern Railways train travel advice

- Luggage: You can bring what you can carry, but be sensible about it. Store bags in the overhead racks or at the ends of carriages - they mustn't obstruct walkways or exits.
- Bicycles: Bikes are welcome at weekends, on public holidays and during off-peak times on weekdays. You can't bring a bike on trains arriving into London between 07:45-10:00 or leaving London between 16:30-19:30, Monday to Friday.
- Children: Kids under 5 travel free and ages 5-15 get half-price tickets. Once they hit 16, they need to pay adult fare unless they've got a 16-17 Saver Railcard which gives them 50% off.
- Pets: You can bring up to 2 pets per person at no extra cost. Four-legged passengers need to be on leads or in carriers. Don't let them sit on the seats, either - they need to stay on the floor at all times.
- Passenger Assistance: If you need help getting on or off the train, finding your seat or any other assistance, book support in advance through the nationwide Passenger Assistance app or website.
