AH, THE ROMANCE OF THE RAILWAY. The sound of the whistle that announces the train's departure, the clackclack rhythm of the rails as they pass beneath the wheels, and the everchanging view that passes by the window. Settling in to a railway carriage is a treat – one that heralds adventure and can be accompanied by a steaming cup of tea or a cooling bottle of beer, no driving required.

Seeing the Great West Way by train means becoming a part of its history. Trains have chugged and steamed along this route for over 175 years, bringing produce to market and business to towns, holidaymakers to the countryside and rural folk to the capital. Join the story of England's railways on a journey along the Great West Way with the GWR Great West Way Discoverer Pass.

The Discoverer pass makes travelling the route easy and hassle free. It includes unlimited off-peak train travel from London Paddington/Waterloo along the route to Bristol Temple Meads via Reading and/or Basingstoke circular routes with options to branch off towards Oxford and Kemble (bus only).
