National Rail have announced that the 16-25 RailCard can be optained in a digital form. Meaning that you can never forget it for train travel.

They have done this to minimised the ‘forgotten card’ problem.

You will be given the choice between electronic or card form.

The card is only available through the Railcard app. Though it is hoped it will be available on more platforms by the end of the year.

You may remeber that we told you about the new 26-30 RailCard last week – this is likely to be released as a digital only card.

What did the Officials Say?

Jyoti Bird, who is a director of National Rail, said: “The introduction of digital railcards is the latest example of train companies working together using technology to make rail travel easier. The digital versions of the Family & Friends and Two Together Railcards will be available shortly, followed by Senior and Disabled Persons Railcards, which will also be available by the end of the year.”
