Noise sensitivity is an under-recognised challenge that affects people with various disabilities. Different individuals have different triggers, but it\u2019s safe to say that the thought of travelling by train with noise sensitivities can feel daunting. Here are some tips and tricks to help ease the journey:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Identify Calmer Waiting Areas<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Often, the most overwhelming part of train travel can be waiting to board your train at the station. With lots of people and activity all around you on the concourse, it may be valuable to identify somewhere quieter and more peaceful for you to wait until it\u2019s time to go. You may find it helpful to sit down inside an enclosed coffee shop with a cup of tea, or some UK train stations have assistance lounges that are more peaceful. Don\u2019t forget to use the Passenger Assistance app to book your assistance<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book The Quiet Carriage (Or First-Class Tickets)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When booking your train tickets, request that your seats are in the Quiet Coach\/Carriage. Most trains have at least one of these carriages, and though they won\u2019t be silent, they tend to be filled with like-minded people who are also hoping for a more peaceful journey. Noise regulations aren\u2019t usually enforced in these areas, but at least you\u2019re much less likely to be sat across from an on-the-move stag do or makeshift karaoke booth during a girls\u2019 night out\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stickman Communications Cards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noise sensitivity can be difficult for non-disabled people to understand, and feeling the need to explain yourself can take valuable energy and exertion. If you\u2019re feeling worried about unexpected conversations, either with train staff or fellow passengers, Stickman Communications create brilliant little cards that communicate access needs. In the moment, showing somebody the card can take away the need to explain your adjustments or further engage in conversation. Here are some examples relevant to noise sensitivity. If none of them feel like the right fit for you, you could even create your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare With Pain Relief<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your noise sensitivity is related to pain, you may have prescription pain relief or management strategies for this. Always adhere to the guidance that medical professionals have given you, but if you\u2019re feeling fearful about the impact of noise on your pain levels, you could consider taking pain relief before you begin your journey. That way, you may be better able to tolerate any issues that crop up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noise-Cancelling Headphones<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, noise-cancelling headphones can be a hero product during your journey. There are many different models out there with various price points, but noise-cancelling technology can really make a difference and help to filter out more painful sounds in your environment. Make sure you have yours charged up and ready to go and pop them on your head once you\u2019re on board. For extra protection, you could even play \u2018white noise\u2019 or \u2018brown noise\u2019 tracks through them to help soothe your brain and make your journey more comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
