What are the benefits of a railcard?
The main benefit of using a railcard is that it only takes a couple of trips to be profitable.
You will need to purchase at least £88 of train tickets throughout the duration of the railcard's validity for the card to break-even. This number corresponds to the cost of the railcard, £30, divided by the discount, 34%. On every ticket that you buy afterwards, you will save money.

How much does a railcard cost?
