The operators have also launched a competition where one lucky winner will win

All you need to do is support one of the teams by commenting #TeamThameslink or #TeamSouthern – posts will be pinned at the top each account. Competition closes on the 22nd February.
Mark Pavlides, Interim Chief Customer Officer, said: “Leisure travel continues to be the driving force of rail travel and thanks to this demand, more people are enjoying getting out and discovering new destinations in the UK. Rail travel is a fantastic way to explore the country, and with customers using different platforms and channels to engage with us, launching our brands on TikTok will help us to reach new audiences and entice people to discover Britain by train. To be in with the chance of winning this fantastic prize, it couldn't be easier to back a team. Don't miss out!”
