Norwich City FC is pleased to announce a new partnership with rail operator Greater Anglia, with a number of bespoke deals and discounts available for Canaries fans.

Greater Anglia is transforming the railway in East Anglia with a number of enhancements being made locally. The company is replacing every single train with brand new trains, fitted with air conditioning, plug and USB points and fast free Wi-Fi, which come into service from 2019.

It is also introducing better timetables with more frequent services and more peak-time trains into London, with a particular focus on services for City fans travelling to away matches in the capital.

Norwich City Commercial Director Ben Kensell said: “We are really pleased to link up with Greater Anglia as this is a partnership that will provide genuine and tangible benefits for fans, particularly those that travel in such good numbers away from home.

“We’re pleased to have Greater Anglia on board, and even more pleased that they’re tailoring a lot of their assets to offer greater benefits to our supporters.”

Martin Moran, Greater Anglia Commercial and Customer Services Director said: "We're happy to be supporting Norwich City, a club which plays such an important role in the Norfolk community.

“It's also especially exciting to be match sponsors of the Ipswich Town game at Carrow Road - and we will continue to support with extra and longer trains for both East Anglian derby days to make it easier for fans to get to these matches."

Details of promotions and opportunities for fans will be released in due course, with Greater Anglia committed to offering enhanced services for away fans travelling to Sky Bet Championship matches in London this season.
