Terms of use
Terms of use
Please read these before relying on anything on the 16-25 Railcard Guide.
An independent guide
Independent guide — not the official Railcard website and not connected to National Rail, the Rail Delivery Group or train companies. Buy railcards from the official railcard site. These are the terms for using this website — they are not the 16-25 Railcard’s terms and conditions, which are on the official site.
General information
Everything here is general information about the 16-25 Railcard. Prices, rules and offers are set by the rail industry and train companies and can change at any time. Always check the official site and your ticket conditions before you buy or travel.
Accuracy
We research each page from the sources listed on it and show when it was last checked, but we can’t promise every page is complete, correct or up to date for your journey. To the extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for loss arising from reliance on the site — including fares, Penalty Fares or tickets bought on the strength of it.
The calculator
The calculator takes a third off the figures you enter and subtracts the card price. It simplifies: real fares and discounts are set by the train companies, and some tickets get no discount.
Names and trademarks
