Travelling by train
If you are aged 16 to 17 and travel by train, you can apply for a National Railcard 16 to 17 Saver. It allows 50% off single, return and season tickets. Please note: this scheme is not administered by Surrey County Council.
The National Rail 16 to 17 Saver offers:
- 50% discount off standard anytime, off-peak, PlusBus, advance and season tickets.
- It can be used on South Western Railways, Southern and Great Western Railway network and across the National Rail network (except on ScotRail and Caledonian Sleeper services)
- The cards cost £30 and are valid for one year or until your 18th birthday.
- A season ticket purchased before your 18th birthday can run up to 4 months after you turn 18. For example if you turn 18 in February then you can purchase a season ticket which will still give you 50% discount for travel up until June.
