Here in the UK we have a thing called Railcard where you can get 1/3rd of rail fares if you meet the criteria. Yesterday I applied for the 16-25 one and it arrived today. It means I can get around the country to take photos in places that were previously a bit too expensive for me to get to!

Do you have a railcard or something similar?
 
Ah nice. Yes I have one too! You have the 16-25 one, which is £30 for the year I think, right? My friend has that one. As I'm from Wales I've got one called the heart of wales rail card, it gives me 1/3 off my rail travel in Wales for only £5 a year, which is a no brainer really. I use it all the time as I'm either going to Llanelli, Swansea, Cardiff or Carmarthen every week.
 
I don't really use the train enough to warrant a railcard. I usually buy through trainline.com and get cheaper tickets anyway.
