Two Together Railcard

Rail users in the West Midlands are being used to test a new Railcard - Two Together - which, for an annual fee of £28 gives 1/3rd off Standard and First Anytime, Off-Peak, and Advance tickets for the two over-16s named (and pictured) on the card.

To qualify, one of the two named individuals must have an address in the B, CV, DY, WS, or WW postcode districts. One key restriction: the discounted tickets bought with this railcard are NOT valid for travel between 04:30 and 09:30 Monday to Friday. 

Using the railcard will allow Virgin passengers to travel together with a discount on the 0930  and 0950 Pendolinos Birmingham to London using Anytime tickets BUT NOT off-peak tickets. It seems that Virgin are not treating this railcard like the long-established ones which, of course, give off-peak travel on any Virgin service... However, at least you can apply the discount when booking online with Virgin which is more than can be done currently on both LondonMidland and Chiltern Railways sites. Come on guys, keep up!
