You will be responsible for all charges and taxes payable as a result of your use of this Booking Service.

Issue of Tickets

Some tickets have limited availability.

However, we do not charge your credit card until your order has been processed. When we or the train operating company or the booking system that you are using have confirmed your booking by email to your registered email address, we will arrange for your tickets to be provided to you. While we endeavour to have tickets delivered in accordance with timescales supplied by our delivery agents; we cannot be responsible for any guaranteed delivery times.

You must ensure that you are in possession of the tickets booked before you board the train. If you cannot produce a valid ticket for the class of accommodation and service that you are using, you will have to pay the appropriate fare on the train and a penalty fare may also be payable. We, the train operating company and the ticket inspector reserve the right to refuse to accept your ticket to the extent that it is unsatisfactorily displayed or to the extent that we or they have reason to suspect that a fraudulent use of confirmation, transfer to a different person, or other abuse or reproductions, copies or counterfeits of any ticket are in circulation.
