Editors’ Choice
Anyone who’s booked train tickets in the UK knows it can be a labyrinthine task. Am I buying off-peak tickets? What is off-peak? What is “super” off-peak? Am I getting the best deal? We were thrilled to have all this—and more—finally made clear as day by a souped-up Trainline app. It’s become as essential to our train travel as a fully charged phone battery.
The little things matter.
We’ve been hard at work improving our app so it’ll be ready whenever you are.
This update includes some minor bug fixes and improvements for a smoother ride.
