Have you got a holiday planned in the new year? Have you thought about how you will be travelling? Consider opting for train travel. It’s much more affordable and a lot less damaging to the environment, and you have the freedom to start relaxing straight away. Here are our top reasons for choosing the railways in 2017.
The freedom
There’s no doubt that you have more freedom when travelling by train. You don’t have to worry about where to park your car and if it’s going to be safe down that street. You can arrive at your destination and start exploring straight away.
You can also enjoy yourself a little bit more, have a couple of drinks and not have to argue about who is going to be the designated driver. On top of all this, you won’t have to worry about being tired on your journey home, just grab a cup of coffee or even have a sleep.
It’s affordable
Train travel is a much more affordable way to travel too, especially when you take advantage of the deals that Hull Trains offer. You can save up to 60% on your tickets when you book with us directly and earn Nectar points in the process. Alternatively, you can pay for petrol, parking and possibly breakdown recovery when choosing to drive.
The experience
Watching all the beautiful countryside and scenery fly by your train window can be magical and allows you to really get lost in your thoughts. The experience of your journey is enhanced by the lack of busy motorways, cramped cars and views of transit lorries. With train travel, your holiday or trip starts the moment you enter the carriage.
Also, Hull Trains are pleased to offer passengers a free enhanced Wi-Fi service, meaning that you can surf the Internet at your leisure for the entirety of the journey.
There’s no traffic
Back-to-back vehicles on the M6 are enough to put a dampener on any journey, but by choosing the railway you won’t have to concern yourself with congestion updates. Just sit back and relax as your carriage whizzes to your destination.
It’s eco-friendly
Train travel is a lot more environmentally friendly than other forms of transport. Whilst trains still create carbon emissions, they carry a lot more passengers than individual cars and coaches. Less pollution being released into the air is surely a good reason to choose the rail service this year.
