Membership Benefits
All Members receive the following exclusive benefits:
- Quarterly issues of “The Marshlander” magazine, a high quality collectable item (one copy per household). For details see : https://www.rhdra.org/support/marshlander/
- In normal times, members can take advantage of unlimited privilege rate journeys on the RH&DR offering a saving of up to 75% on ordinary fares.
Regrettably this benefit is restricted until further notice due to Covid-19 and the railway’s need to recover revenue.
However, for the present, the railway has generously allowed one compartment on every train which can be pre-booked by members at privilege rates – first come, first served. Please book direct with the railway and see https://www.rhdra.org/join/membership-benefits/members-free-travel-pass/

Regrettably this benefit is suspended until further notice due to Covid-19

Some opportunities are NOT affected by Covid-19. See https://www.rhdra.org/about/volunteers/
