  • GWR seat reservations

    From Tweed@usenet.tweed@gmail.com to uk.railway on Mon Mar 2 14:11:59 2026

    It has always been possible to reserve seats on the GWR website for almost
    any TOC that offers reservations. You donrCOt need to hold a ticket to make
    the reservation (though obviously you do to travel). The GWR website has undergone a revamp and it took me ages to find the correct page again. So
    in case this helps others:
    Firstly you need to be signed in via the icon at the top right of
    www.gwr.com (the green circle)
    Then go to

    https://www.gwr.com/myaccount/my-trips

    There you should see a Make A Reservation button

    Incidentally, that website/app revamp was a bit naughty - it was publicised
    at fairly short notice, and it would appear that if you had tickets
    purchased but not yet downloaded, you justrCa lost them. If you had
    downloaded them then obviously you had that copy.

    As I from time to time make use of interrail passes in the UK, this
    option is quite useful for those occasions.
