Frequently Asked Questions
Can you cope with allergies? We can provide vegan/vegetarian/gluten free alternatives for those with these dietary requirements. Please explictly mention these on the train on the day as you receive goodies. Sadly, other allergies / intolerances cannot be catered for. Please note that all food and drink is prepared and distributed close to each other and so there is likely to be cross-contamination. Safety first is really important so if an allergy or intolerance is severe, please do not eat the main or alternative option.
