LNER launches on-board podcast for kids travelling by train

Young passengers on LNER trains can now enjoy a dedicated children’s podcast, available during their journey or online.
The new ‘LNER Kids Club’ podcast is packed with stories, games and behind-the-scenes interviews tailored to younger listeners. It’s designed to keep children entertained and informed as they travel on the East Coast route.
Passengers can access the podcast onboard by scanning the QR code on the back of their seat or listen on all major podcast platforms.
There are currently three episodes, with contributions from LNER train drivers, station staff, British Transport Police and even LNER’s Managing Director David Horne. All are answering questions from curious young interviewers asking about life on the railway and the range of roles behind the scenes.
The show is hosted by Emma-Louise Amanshia and Lauren Underwood from Fun Kids, who said it had been “an amazing experience” to meet those working across LNER and some of its youngest passengers.
Stuart from LNER said: “We’re delighted to be offering our younger passengers an exciting new way to make the most of their LNER adventures.”
The first two episodes are live now and can be streamed both on and off the train.
