About Southeastern

SE Trains Limited, known as Southeastern, is a train operator owned by DfT OLR Holdings on behalf of the Department of Transport. It took over, on October 17, 2021, from the private company London & South Eastern Railway (also known as Southeastern). which operates the South Eastern franchise in the South East of England. In September 2021, the Department for Transport announced it would end the South East franchise operated by Southeastern, which is owned by Govia, after discrepancies in tax returns involving £25m of public funds. Southeastern Rail took over the franchise as operator of last resort on October 17, 2021 for three years, until October 2024. Southeastern serves major London stations including Charing Cross, Waterloo East, Cannon Street, London Bridge, St Pancras, Victoria and Blackfriars. The network covers 870 km of lines and has 180 stations. The South Eastern Railway will continue to operate the same timetable as its predecessor. Southeastern offers a wide range of train tickets for passengers to choose from. The ideal ticket for passengers traveling at the weekend is the Weekender ticket, which allows travel at off-peak hours on Friday or Saturday and return on Saturday or Sunday. Visitors to Kent should buy a Kent Rover ticket, which allows unlimited train travel outside peak hours for three consecutive days in certain areas of Kent.

Additionally, you'll have more opportunity to appreciate the scenic views of the countryside!
    Travel Off-Peak
    Be open to flexibility in your travel schedule
    A significant number of train services in Europe are also utilized as commuter services, and as such, many train companies raise ticket prices during "peak hours" (typically from 06:00 to 10:00 and from 15:00 to 19:00 on weekdays). If possible, try to travel outside of peak hours to secure lower-priced tickets.
