The 26-30 Railcard is here to stay. If you find yourself in the queue you can come back later. Like way later (tomorrow, next week, Summer), and you will still be able to get one.
We intended to launch the 26-30 Railcard by the end of the year,given how timings have worked out this would mean launching it over a bank holiday. When the 26-30 Railcard goes on sale we want to be able to provide you with the best possible experience. It will go on sale 2nd Jan

The 26-30 Railcard is here to stay, unlimited numbers, it's not going anywhere. So if you are getting a long wait on the queue you can just come back at a later time. It will still be there.
Turns out 26-30 year olds like train travel!
In the first month since the 26-30 Railcard was released, customers have saved: £3,421,028.
If this continues the average 26-30 Railcard holder will save over £280 a year.
We still have to share the good news with staff and update our back-end systems etc. which takes time, so we can't give you an exact date just yet but it will be here by the end of the year. As soon as we know, you'll know 2/2
