Railcards

A railcard is a card that often makes it cheaper when you travel by train.

There are different types of railcards.

You might be able to get a railcard because of your age.

You might be able to get a railcard because of where you live.

You might be able to get a railcard if you have a disability.

Your railcard might be a card which you take with you.

Your railcard might be a digital railcard that you keep on your phone.

Each railcard has different rules about when you can use it.

If you are going to travel by train, check if you can use your railcard when you buy your ticket.

If your ticket is cheaper because of your railcard, you will need to take your railcard with you when you travel on the train.

For more information about railcards go to the National Rail Railcards webpage.
