Overland Trains


Traveling on overland trains, especially around Greater London,
is extremely popular.  An effective network of trains covers the width and
breath of the UK - from Cornwall in the South, through the Lake Districts
and up to Scotland, to Wales in the West.  

Planning routes to your destinations via overland train can be confusing.  Some helpful
links to help you are shown below.

The Trainline

The network of trains are run by various operators, so shop around where you can to get the best
price when planning a long trip.  Depending on your destination, you will need to start your trip, or
connect to; one of the following main stations in the London Central Area.  These are:

Destination area in the UK Departure Station North (East Coast to Scotland) Kings Cross North St
Pancreas North West Euston South West Paddington or Waterloo South Victoria South East and
East Charing Cross or London Bridge East and North East Liverpool Street

Tips

Overland train tickets are NOT valid on the London Underground or Bus Services.

If you are planning on a number of trips around the United Kingdom by train, you may want to
consider buying a Network Railcard.  There are a number of options available, although even
the standard Railcard is value for money; priced at around £20 for the one off registration
fee, it offers significant discounts on travel for you and up to three other traveling
companions.  Staff at the stations will be able to give you the full details on the type
of card to suit you best.

If you're not sure when you are returning from a destination, open return
tickets are available. There are a number of ticket types available - ask at
the station for the one that best suits your needs and budget.
