When applying for a Family Railcard is the applicant named on the card and if so, do they always have to travel with the card or can it be any member of the family that can use it?
“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”

You get the option on the application to put 2 adult names on the railcard, and as long as one of those people is travelling, with a child, you can use the railcard for discount fares.0

it's true that the adult names are on the card but I've never been asked to prove who I am when I've used it. Maybe other people can comment if they have.0

^^^true, but be careful if your buying the tickets online, as online purchased tickets now have the account holders name on them and if its different to the name on the railcard and it's noticed by the Conductor/TE the you could be in trouble.Whoa!
