An Immersive Rail Experience

 

We have some exciting news for your upcoming journey, we have made changes to our onboard audio commentary which is now available via our new infotainment app.

The infotainment app allows all audio commentary and stories to be available at a touch of a button via your phone.

Our commentary has been upgraded and revised and we are excited to have it available for our passengers.

The app is easy to use, and if you have any issues, please talk to the staff on the train, they will help you to troubleshoot any issues.

Please make sure you bring your own device, USB charger and headphones to enjoy the audio commentary.
