Customers can access the free Wi-Fi by launching their browser and following the instructions on the EMR landing page.

The service also features ‘Friendly Wi-Fi’ to filter illegal or harmful content, to help protect children and families.

Philippa Cresswell, Customer Service Director at East Midlands Railway, said: “Be it for work or leisure, we understand how important it is for our customers to stay connected while they are on the move. That is why we’re excited about this project and the advantages it will provide when people choose to use our services – especially for customers who might have limited money and don’t want to use their mobile data.

“The free Wi-Fi will benefit customers on our Regional, InterCity and Connect services, making travelling with EMR more convenient whatever the destination.”
