Discount Leeds - Sheffield train tickets

National Railcards can bring you great savings if you're taking the train. Depending on your age and your situation, you might want to get one of the five existing railcards: Disabled persons, 16-25, Two together, Senior or Family and Friends railcards. Railcards can help you make great savings for your Leeds Sheffield train ticket.

  • When getting a railcard, the idea is to make savings after several journeys. But is it really relevant when travelling from Leeds to Sheffield? Grab your calculator, considering:

    A = the cost of the railcard (i.e.: £30)

    B = average discount offered by the railcard (i.e.: 34%)

    C = average fare for a Leeds Sheffield ticket (i.e.: £13.30)(1)

    Start by dividing A by B: this will give you the budget from which the card will be worthwile. Then divide that number by C. You will see the average number of journeys needed per year to be profitable.

    In our example, A/B = £30/34% = £88.00. Then, 88/£13.30 = 6.62. Your railcard will be worth the investment after on average 7 trips from Leeds to Sheffield (one way trip).

  • Railcards enable you to get a third off most rail fares for a year. The Disabled persons railcard costs £20 and the 5 other railcards £30.
