National Railcards can offer great value for money if you're travelling by train.

Railcards can enable you to save money for your Ayr Derby train ticket.
Why should I buy a railcard?
When purchasing a railcard, you want to save money after several trips. But is it really worth it when taking the train from Ayr to Derby? Check with your calculator, taking into account:
A = the railcard cost (i.e.: £30)
B = average saving with the railcard (i.e.: 34%)
C = average price for a Ayr Derby ticket (i.e.: £85.48)(1)
Initially, divide A by B: this will show you the budget from which the card will be profitable. Now divide that number by C. The result is the minimum number of trips needed throughout the duration of the railcard's validity to start saving money.
In our example, A/B = £30/34% = £88.00. Then, 88/£85.48 = 1.03. Your railcard will be worthwile once you will have done at least 2 trips from Ayr to Derby (one way journey).
What is the cost of a railcard?
All railcards cost £30 except the Disabled persons railcard for which you will pay £20. Railcards give you 34% off most rail fares, thus you will save 1/3 on most train fares.
