Each Railcard offers a similar discount - 1/3 off the price of an adult fare, as well as some great discounts for children too. Choosing the right one for you depends on things like your age, where you live, and how you like to travel.
* Il risparmio medio si basa sull'utilizzo della Railcard per l'acquisto di biglietti su TrainPal tra aprile 2021 e marzo 2022. Questo calcolo esclude il prezzo della Railcard stessa e si applica solo a tariffe ferroviarie selezionate. Per informazioni complete su ciascuna Railcard e sui biglietti idonei, consultare le condizioni della Railcard di TrainPal.
** Un risparmio di 20 £ viene calcolato sottraendo il costo di acquisto di una Railcard triennale (70 £) dal costo di acquisto di tre Railcard annuali (90 £)
Railcards cost £30 for the whole year, while some are available for a three-year option at £70, which means you can save more money (around £23 per year).
