Rail Delivery Group (ATOC) said:Figures released today reveal passengers have already saved more than £20 million on their rail travel over the last year following the launch of the Two Together Railcard.
Launched on Monday 3 March 2014, Two Together was the first national Railcard to arrive in Britain for over 30 years and gives two named people a third off rail fares when they travel together.
In just a year, over 215,000 Two Together Railcards have been sold and more than 3 million journeys made. The first cardholders have saved on average £127.48 over the course of the year, including the £30 cost of the Railcard.

It's pleasing to see the Two Together Railcard proving so popular. The greatest number of Railcards were purchased at Kings Cross and London Euston which, being the termini of long distance lines, suggests that substantial savings are being made by Railcard users.
