Railway Card

I do not have any interesting things to blog about lately, so this actually came up. I know this sound silly to blog about a railway card but my peeps out there might be interest to know.

Anyway, this piece of ‘thing’ (the railway card) actually cost me £26 for a year. It’s called the Young Person card for those ages 16-25. It is a discount card which saves 1/3 on rail fares throughout whole Britain.

I registered it last month when I paid a visit to Birmingham. A normal return ticket cost £8.50 to Birmingham during the off-peak hours but with a railway card, it cost only £5.60! Well, it worth a lot if you travel frequently.

Luckily, I managed to make few copies of my passport pictures before coming to UK else it will really cost me to print it here. By the way, I got my NI numbers (National Insurance) already, I can work!


p/s: If purchase the rail ticket online few weeks earlier, it may be even cheaper. Cheers!
