Northern train travel advice
- Luggage: Northern doesn’t have a strict baggage limit, but as space is limited, it’s best to travel light – ideally with just one small bag and one medium suitcase per passenger. Bags should be stored in the overhead shelves, under-seat space or end-of-carriage racks to keep aisles, doors and wheelchair areas clear.
- Bicycles: Standard bikes and e-bikes are welcome, though the space available for bikes may vary by train, so boarding early is recommended. Folding bikes are treated as regular luggage and can be brought on board without restriction.
- Children: Kids under the age of five travel free of charge, while children aged 5-15 can get 50% off standard fares. Families with a Family & Friends railcard can enjoy greater savings (with a third off adult fares and 60% off children’s fares), while older children can travel for half-price with a 16-17 Saver railcard.
- Pets: Passengers may bring up to two pets on board Northern trains free of charge. Dogs must remain on a lead or be transported in a secure carrier. All animals must be kept off seats.
- Passenger Assist: If you need to reserve a wheelchair space or if you need a little extra help with boarding trains, handling luggage or accessing stations, Passenger Assist can be booked in advance or arranged on the day of travel by speaking to staff at major stations.
