PlusBus
PlusBus is a discount price ticket for unlimited bus travel that you can add to your train ticket. Whether you’re commuting to work, going shopping, visiting friends or just having a day-out in town, you can buy PlusBus with your train ticket.
Where and when can I use PlusBus?
With PlusBus you enjoy total freedom. Unlimited bus and tram travel on most/all operators services, around the area of the rail-served town or city on your train ticket. Buy PlusBus to start your journey (for travel to the train station) or to complete your journey (for travel from the train station to your final destination). There's no peak period restrictions, so you can hop-on and off buses and trams as much as you like all day. When travelling with PlusBus, your driver and other authorised staff may request to see your train ticket (or proof of purchase thereof).
Fastrack accept all of the PlusBus tickets across the Thameside area, including:
- Dartford
- Greenhithe (for convenient connections to Bluewater)

PlusBus tickets are valid all day on the day (or day) covered on your train ticket, up to 04:00 the following morning, allowing connections off of late night services.
Where can I buy Plusbus?
You can purchase PlusBus tickets online, at self-service ticket machines and from any rail station ticket offices, as well as all online railway ticket retailers, including southeastern. If you buy a ticket that contains a QR code, then the ticket machines on our buses can scan and accept your PlusBus e-ticket on all our services.
