Rail Travel

If you are tired of  the congestion and regimentation of budget airlines, or  put off by the security check queues, hand luggage restrictions and environmental effects of all airlines, have you thought of travelling by train instead of flying?

And don't forget that you can buy a Senior Rail Card for 20% reductions on UK travel.  That is something that is not available on air travel!
