Railcards

Hi,

Does anyone know if you can get a railcard for a sigle person over the age of 26? I have been on the website but can't find anything. I am going to usung the train two days per week, return journey each day from mid November and am tring to work out how to get the cheapest tickets. Any ideas? Ohh and I am new to this although I registered way back in 2007. Thanks, sue

    You can get a student railcard (if you are a mature student), a senior one if you are over 60, or a family one at any time but you need to always have (any) child with you when you travel to be able to use it.
  • Suet,

    It would be helpful to know where you're travelling to and from: if you live in an area covered by a Public Transport Executive such as Centro in the West Midlands, there may be travel passes which could help you.
