    Parents to be

    If you're a parent or expecting a baby have a look at these helpful FAQs

    Don’t be left standing on a packed train. If you’re pregnant, you can get a free Baby on Board badge to let everyone know you need a seat.

    Applying is easy. Just request a badge using our online feedback form, or give our Customer Services team a call on 0345 322 7021 and they’ll be happy to put one in the post for you.

    Pregnant passengers can meet the criteria for a Priority Seating card.

    This card can be shown to fellow passengers who are sitting in a priority seat and gives them priority over non-card holders.

    Absolutely! We understand little ones can be restless on a long journey. You can download and print some free Southeastern train-themed activity pages or connect to our free WiFi when your on board our trains.

    Live information on on-board toilets is now available through our Southeastern app.
