1 - What does a Multi-Trip Rover ticket entitle me to?
The Rover includes 6 single trips between any two stations on our line, eg a trip from Bala to Llangower will count as 1, as will Bala to Llanuwchllyn. If you use all 6 of your trips, you can buy more for £2 per Adult and £1 per child. Additional trips can be purchased as you go along.
2 - Can I get on any train?
Yes, you can get on any train. Just give the booking number to the guard or booking assistant on the platform before boarding the train and they will reserve a seat on the train for you.
3 - Can I reserve seats on a specific train in advance?
Yes, you can reserve seats on any train using your rover at any time after purchase right up to the point of departure, subject to space being available on the train. This can be done by approaching a booking assistant or via our online booking system.
To reserve a seat, use the link in your rover ticket email, or enter the order number in the discount code box to use your rover ticket to book a space. Alternatively, you can ask a booking assistant to reserve seats on the train you wish to take.
4 - What if the train is full?
We cannot guarantee seats if the train is already full when you arrive on the platform or try to book. If you wish to be sure of getting seats on a specific service, you can pre-book at any time before the train departs.
5 - Do I have to choose my trains when I purchase my rover?
No, the rover entitles you to travel, but it does not reserve seats and you will not be required to choose train times when you purchase your rover ticket.
6 - Do we have to travel as a group?
All travellers who purchase their rover tickets as part of the same order are expected to travel together. This keeps things simple when reserving seats for trains, since all you need to do is pick the correct departures. If you wish to split up during the day, please purchase your Rover tickets separately.
7 - Can I buy a Dog Rover?
Yes, you can buy a dog rover for £1, so your dog can accompany you at all times for no further charge.
8 - How do I buy a rover ticket for two or three days
Our booking system isn't able to sell a multi-day ticket as a single order. If you want a two or three day rover, please book a rover ticket for your first day as normal on line and then contact us to add your extra days.
9 - I am a BLRS member, can I claim a discount?
Yes, please contact us to get a discount code.
