Rail Advertising is a great wait to communicate with passengers on their daily travels. In fact, there’s no other advertising medium that talks to commuters quite like it.

That’s because, once a traveller enters a railway station, they enter a sheltered, secluded environment that offers little other else to look at apart from trains, passengers, and white walls.

Therefore, making the train station an ideal way to target new customers from commuters by engaging with a normally hard-to-reach audience.

To clarify the hard to reach! A 2008 survey stated that three out of four rail passengers are ABC1 – in other words educated, upmarket and affluent. Additionally, there is a repetition of travel routes and extended dwell time that will give your advertising added exposure to an otherwise elusive audience.
