New Unlocked Reward from Dura Will Rail-y Get You Going

We’re delighted to reveal a brand-new reward, unlocked for all app users, which will ‘rail’-y get you going – a fabulous prize draw from our valued Octopus Patron, Dura Composites.

Simply head to our free Octopus Ahoy! app on your device and check out your ‘Available’ rewards list to find the offer; the chance to enter the competition to win one of five Family & Friends Railcards! Available for use throughout Great Britain, the railcard allows you to save 1/3 on most adult fares, and 60% off children’s fares – just imagine the savings!

Dura’s sponsored octopus, ‘Journey of a Thousand Stars’ by Mik Richardson, has made its home this summer in London Liverpool Street station, the gateway to Tendring by train, standing as a beacon to signpost octopus hunters on their way to the trail – just as the stars guided the Mayflower on its long journey to the new world. It is this message, and how it is interpreted on their sculpture’s celestial design, that has struck a chord with Dura Composites this summer; getting people out and exploring again can only be good for everyone.

And what better way to do it than by train? Submit your entry into the prize draw now and get ready to rediscover your love for travelling by rail. The five lucky winners will be drawn at random on 10th September and notified by email, so keep an eye on your inbox and when the time comes, simply reply to claim! 

Don’t forget to head to London Liverpool Street to visit ‘Journey of a Thousand Stars’ before the trail reaches the end of the line on 5th September; scan the QR code to unlock another offer from Dura Composites, 15% off Mahogany Composite Decking Tiles – ideal for fast tracking your decking’s makeover.

T&Cs of both rewards are available on the free app, so check it out for full details, and to submit your entry to the draw. Find out more about how much you could save with the Family & Friends Railcard here.
