Please see Southern’s publicity for full details of their services between Dorking, Epsom and London Victoria. Buy a ticket before you board You need to buy a valid ticket before you board your train. We know that the vast majority of our passengers buy a valid ticket before travelling and we have a duty to those passengers to make sure no one travels without paying. For this reason, we run a penalty fares scheme across most of our network. If you travel to or from a station within the penalty fares area without a valid ticket, you may be liable for a penalty fare of £20 or twice the single fare to the next station at which your train stops (whichever is higher). You will then be required to buy a ticket for the remainder of the journey. We have a policy to prosecute all deliberate fare evaders, wherever possible. Changes to train times Network Rail needs to do engineering work to maintain and improve the rail network. Much of this work is done at weekends and during the holiday periods, but some work also needs to be done overnight during the week.
