What is a Network Railcard?

The Network Railcard is perfect for people who travel across London and the South East. It’s the fastest way to get discounts on train tickets, so you can shop, visit, and have fun with extra savings.

The best part? You can get discounts on tickets for family and friends travelling with you. Save 1/3 on train tickets for up to 3 more adults and a whopping 60% on up to 4 child tickets.

*Annual saving is based on the average savings made by combined Railcard holders between April 2025 and March 2026, excluding price of Railcard.
