The Two Together Railcard is a great way to make savings when travelling together. It offers 1/3 off the cost of train journeys around the UK and is a railcard for two people who travel by train together regularly. Whether you always catch the train to work with the same colleague, love going on daytrips with your partner, or enjoy visiting new cities with a friend, the Two Together Railcard makes it easier and more affordable to travel as a duo.
The Two Together Railcard is for two named cardholders, and it can only be used when the two passengers are travelling together. The Railcard cannot be used when travelling separately, and your discount cannot be applied to tickets for other passengers.
