Locals' Rover Ticket To A Greener Journey.

The Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Railway are giving away a Local Rover Ticket to nearby residents.

For residents living in the postcode areas of TQ6, TQ4 and TQ3 are being asked to collect their Locals' Rover Ticket today! The ticket enables the holder to half price travel on through journeys, when travelling in either direction, on selected trains between Paignton and Kingswear. A return ticket is normally £8, but will be available for £4 with the Local Rover Ticket.

Andrew Pooley, General Manager said, “The Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Railway recognise the importance of the local market and are encouraging residents to use a more unusual mode of transport and to enjoy a scenic and sustainable way of travelling. Locals' can use the service to do their shopping, commuting or simply for a day out and we look forward to welcoming our new local customers.”

By ditching the car and using the steam train, locals will be part of a greener future, reducing their carbon footprint and traffic congestion. Holders of the Local Rover Ticket will be supporting the local economy and re-acquainting themselves with the beauty and variety of scenery that is on their doorstep.

You can apply for the ticket by downloading a form on

www.paignton-steamrailway.co.uk or by calling into the Paignton, Goodrington, Churston and Kingswear offices. Tickets will only be issued from the Paignton office and proof of residency will be needed, with a recent utility bill. Terms and conditions apply.
