Nya – A tale of Safety & Smiles

TransPennine Express is launching a new children’s book starring Nya, the popular therapy dog who supports wellbeing and passenger reassurance across the network.

The book aims to help children and families feel confident and safe while travelling by train, using storytelling to deliver positive safety and safeguarding messages.

Nya has been utilised for extensive safeguarding initiatives and events since May 2025 and has helped many people, particularly those who are struggling. Nya has been really popular with children at the stations and TransPennine Express have produced an illustrated book aimed at children under the age of 10.
