Do I need to print my train tickets or can I use a mobile ticket?

Asked 2 years ago
Trainline offers the convenience of mobile tickets, allowing travelers to use their smartphones for ticket validation. Many train operators accept mobile tickets, which can be scanned directly from your device at ticket barriers and on board trains. This eliminates the need for physical printing. When you purchase your tickets through Trainline, you will typically have the option to choose between mobile tickets, print-at-home tickets, or collection at a station. It is essential to check the specific ticket type you are buying and the policies of the train operator you will be traveling with, as acceptance of mobile tickets may vary by provider. If you prefer a digital solution, ensure that your mobile device is fully charged and that you have the Trainline app or the email confirmation ready for display prior to your journey. For further details regarding your ticket options, it is advisable to look on the current web page of Trainline for the most accurate information.
