Discount Railcards

A young person's rail card is for the young generation whom are currently between 16 and 25 years old. The card is also for mature students whom are 26 years of age or older. I got my first rail card last year in February as I realised how much I was using the railway to travel. I just recently renewed my young person's card in February and it was a shame to see that the price for the rail card had gone up. The young person's card allows you to get a third off train tickets, which saves you lots of money. Price The young person's rail card price has recently been increased from £20 to £24 I ... more

The Young Persons Railcard is one of the best things I buy every year as I am forever commuting up and down the country with having my family in Scotland and living down in England.

Young Person's Railcard Intro As friendly as I am, there are some times that I just don't want to talk: when I am on the bus, first thing in the morning.

I also know, thanks to one ... more

Public transport has always been a bit of a nemisis of mine. Whether it's due to being too tall to properly sit in bus seats or having an aversion to airline food I don't know, but travelling by plane, bus or tram always seems to throw up unpleasantness... The rail system in this country is a joke. That is not in dispute. However, even if there are delayed trains, graffiti on the seats and attendants who insist on shoving their trolleys into your knees, at least people between the ages of 16 and 25 (and also mature, full-time students) can be rest assured that they are saving a little bit of ... more
