Travel terms and conditions

New conditionsWhen a passenger chooses to travel by train, it is important that he can easily find the necessary information about the conditions governing his journey(s).

These Conditions of Transport were previously contained in a document that, whilst comprehensive was long and cumbersome. In addition, they included many specific cases and exceptions.

Consequently, we have restructured, standardised and simplified our Terms & Conditions. Our objective is to make it easy for you to find clear information when and where you need it.

General Travel Terms & Conditions

The General Travel Terms & Conditions are key to setting out the legal framework in which journeys take place. They are now contained in a document of around fifteen pages instead of the previous 250.
