Discount railcard extended for people aged up to 30 [BBC News]





Date: 21/11/2017

If you're 26 and annoyed about paying the full fare for your train travel, the Budget may offer a reprieve. The government has said people up to 30 years-old will now be able to buy a £30 railcard for discounted train travel. The move - set to be announced in Wednesday's Budget - would be an extension of the current young person's railcard for those aged 16 to 25. The so called millennials' card will be available from spring next year, and offer up to a third off non-peak fares.
