Chiltern Railways, alongside the wider rail industry, offered free travel for serving military personnel and veterans attending Remembrance events last weekend.
Serving military personnel and veterans travelling to London to attend Remembrance services could travel free of charge on Chiltern Railways services to London Marylebone on Saturday 7 November and Sunday 8 November 2026.
