• When purchasing a railcard, you want to save money after several trips. But is it really worth it when taking the train from Manchester to Ashford? Check with your calculator, taking into account:

  In our example, A/B = £30/34% = £88.00. Then, 88/£89.41 = 0.98. Your railcard will be worthwile once you will have done at least 1 trips from Manchester to Ashford (one way journey).
