TfW Heart of Wales Day Explorer - PRIVable?

[tiptoptaff]

Hello, does anyone know if the 1 day Heart of Wales circular can be PRIV discounted?

A mate and I are both looking to do a rising day and we're torn between the HoW circular and a Valleys bash. The valleys day explorer isn't priv discountable AFAIK but it's only £13. The HoWL ranger is £40, and if that's not priv discountable, then it's a lot of beer tokens to sacrifice!

Thanks in advance

It certainly did not used to be. It may be now.

No worries. It appears some priv rate splits bring it down to around £15 anyway

There appears to be no fare on BRFares so I'm erring on the side of no, unfortunately.

The Explore Wales 4 in 8 is though, at a very reasonable £24.75

There is a definitive list somewhere of the Rangers and Rovers that the discount is available with. Somebody posted it on the forum not long ago, but I can't find it and I can't remember who - @CyrusWuff possibly? I am surprised if it is not on the staff travel website somewhere?

If nobody else can find it, a ticket office at a quiet time of day might print it off for you.

Priv not available for HOW circular.

I'm sure the Cardiff Valleys Ranger is privable - should be about £4 or so.

It definitely used to be but I think they put a stop to it. I used to use it on the buses and it did raise a few eyebrows when the price was lower than the bus fare.

Edit: Ignore that - it is Privable, that's the ticket I always buy when down there...it's the bus validity they've done away with.
