How Do They Work?


Not only are BritRail Passes very economical, but they are also very easy to use. BritRail Passes come in their own ticket jackets, very similar to an airline ticket. They can be easily stored in a money pouch around your waist.    

When you decide to begin travel, you simply take your BritRail pass to a ticket window on your first day of use to get it validated. A railway official will then stamp your rail pass. Then away you go.

And no, you do NOT have to exchange the rail pass for rail tickets. The pass is your ticket for the whole duration of the pass. Go wherever you wish with one document. No line ups, no waiting, no hastle. You have from midnight to midnight to do as much rail travel as you wish, board any train you wish during the day. All counting as one day.

If you have a BritRail Flexipass you will notice a sequence of boxes at the bottom.

Every time a conductor checks your BritRail pass, he will enter his signature, or punch a hole in the box beside the one last used. These boxes tell the conductors what days have been used.

It's That simple.
