Everyone is eligible to at least a certain railcard, even non-UK citizens. National railcards available: 16-25 railcard, Senior discount card, Two together railcard, Family and Friends discount card and Disabled persons railcard.

  • To understand the savings that you can make with a railcard, you need to calculate how many trips you need to make earnings. You will see that commonly only a few trips are needed.

    Divide the railcard cost by the saving: £30/34%= £88. Now divide £88 by £66.11: £88/£66.11 = 1.33. It will take you on average 2 trips from Watford to Chester (one way journey) with your railcard to start saving money.
