Northern train travel advice

Get ready for your Worksop to Sheffield train with Northern with this practical guide, packed with handy tips on travelling with luggage, bikes, children, pets and accessibility support.

• Luggage: While Northern doesn’t have a formal baggage allowance, storage space is limited, so it’s best to keep bags to a minimum. Stow luggage in overhead racks and under-seat areas to ensure walkways and wheelchair spaces are kept clear.
• Bicycles: Passengers may bring both e-bikes and standard bikes on board, though capacity is limited, so boarding early is a good idea. Folding bikes can be brought onboard all trains when stored as luggage.
• Children: Under-fives can ride free of charge, while kids aged 5-15 are eligible for 50% off standard fares. Families can save even more with a Family & Friends railcard, while teenagers can unlock half-price tickets with the 16-17 Saver railcard.
• Pets: Passengers are welcome to bring up to two pets onboard Northern services free of charge. Dogs should remain on a lead or in a carrier, and all pets must be kept off seats.
• Passenger Assist: Passengers requiring help boarding, handling luggage or navigating stations can pre-book Passenger Assist when purchasing their ticket or by requesting assistance on the day at staffed stations.
