Am I the only one who thinks it odd and not entirely reasonable that a number of the Rail Rovers offer a discount for the '2 Together' railcard but not the Friends and Family?

Take the East Mids Day Ranger for example.

Usual Adult price £ 36.30, Child price £ 18.15.

There's no family option, yet a 2 Together railcard can get it for £ 23.95 each.

So it actually costs LESS for two adults to travel with their railcard than an adult and child even if they have a F&F railcard.

The West Mids Day ranger is similar:

Adult £ 25.60, Child £ 12.80. There is a family ticket at £ 51.20.

The '2 Together' price is £ 16.90 - so less than an Adult & Child even if they have a F&F railcard.
