A Senior Railcard costs £30 for a 1-year Railcard or £70 for a 3-year Railcard.
Senior Railcards offer a fantastic way for eligible individuals to save money on train travel across Great Britain. Understanding the pricing options allows you to choose the best value for your travel needs.
Senior Railcard Pricing Options
The Senior Railcard is available for purchase in two distinct validity periods, offering flexibility based on how frequently you plan to travel by train:
Type | Price (1-year Railcard) | Price (3-year Railcard) |
---|---|---|
Senior Railcard | £30 | £70 |
- 1-Year Senior Railcard: Priced at £30, this option is ideal if you're looking to try out the benefits, or if your travel plans are less frequent over a longer period.
- 3-Year Senior Railcard: For those who travel regularly or plan to do so for an extended period, the £70 3-year option provides greater savings, essentially giving you a year of discounts for free compared to purchasing three separate 1-year Railcards.
Eligibility for a Senior Railcard
To be eligible for a Senior Railcard, you must be 60 years old or over. This railcard provides a 1/3 off most rail fares in Great Britain, making train travel more affordable for seniors.
