- Southeastern
- East Midlands Railway
- LNER
Southeastern connects passengers in southeast and south London, Kent and East Sussex under its three sub-brands: Metro, for high-capacity commuter services; Mainline, for longer-distance connections; and Highspeed, the UK’s first domestic high-speed service. The latter recently underwent upgrades for a modern, comfortable onboard experience.
Standard
TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"While Southeastern’s First Class service has been discontinued, you can still access the more spacious seats with a Standard Class ticket. Right behind the driver’s cab, you’ll find declassified First Class seats. I recommend checking where the front of the train will stop at your platform and positioning yourself correctly to nab a roomier seat."
"Many of Southeastern’s Metro trains and City Beam units don’t have onboard toilets, which is vital to be aware of so you’re not caught short. You can check real-time toilet availability via Southeastern’s app in the Live Departures feature."

TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Visiting Nottingham: For something that feels properly local, head beyond the obvious Robin Hood trail and spend time around Sneinton Market. The avenues are filled with independent food spots and small creative businesses, and it gives you a much better feel for modern Nottingham. If you want a historical oddity too, look out for Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, which claims to be one of England’s oldest pubs."
