How do I add a train Railcard?
Once you’ve chosen your journey and departure time, you'll find an option below to add a Railcard. Simply select the ‘+’ button and scroll through the list until you find your Railcard to add it to your journey.

How do I book a ticket?

Can I get a refund on an unused train ticket?
Yes, you can typically get a refund on an unused Grand Central train ticket, but the specific rules and procedures depend on the ticket type and the reason for the refund. Generally, you must return the ticket within 28 days of its expiry date, and you may be subject to an administration fee.
You can only refund tickets purchased through Grand Central.
Advance tickets are non-refundable, unless the service they were valid for is cancelled, disrupted or amended and, as a result, you choose not to travel.
If you have purchased an Off-peak or Anytime ticket from grandcentralrail.com, you can refund your tickets.
