SailRail

[3][4][5] The ticket is a joint scheme between Rail Delivery Group (representing the mainland British train operating companies), Iarnród Éireann, Irish Ferries, Stena Line, and Northern Ireland Railways.

[7] SailRail competes against airlines linking city pairs across the Irish Sea from each other, which have been affected by increased fares and further disruption and delays at airports.

[8] However, SailRail tickets are not well-known or advertised prominently, and those between London and Dublin cannot save time compared to flying, though this may change with the introduction of improved services such as High Speed 2.

Since that time, SailRail tickets issued for this route have included the price of a connecting coach service which runs from Stranraer railway station to the port.

[12][15] Another SailRail-esque scheme, branded 'DutchFlyer', allows travel between any Greater Anglia station (such as Liverpool Street or Colchester Town) to Hook of Holland via ferry from Harwich.

[22] In California, a Sail & Rail ticket can be purchased to travel between Sonoma, Marin and San Francisco via the Golden Gate Ferry.
