The £10 railcard that can get people from North Yorkshire & Cumbria HALF PRICE travel on the region’s trains for 5 months!
Residents living in certain postcodes of North Yorkshire and Cumbria can now apply for a special ‘Dales Railcard’ that will entitle them to half price, off-peak day return fares on the Bentham and Settle & Carlisle lines this winter.
It is part of a campaign by Northern to encourage people that live in the region to ditch the car and take the train.
The ‘Dales Railcard’ is valid on all off-peak day return tickets between Sunday, 30 October 2022 and Saturday, 1 April 2023.
Great savings for Dales Railcard holders include being able to travel from Bentham to Leeds via Skipton for £9.40 return, from Appleby to Carlisle for £5.05 return, and from Settle to Carlisle via Appleby for £12.00 return.

Mark Powles, customer and commercial director at Northern, said: “The ‘Dales Railcard’ is a great example of Northern and community rail groups working together for the benefit of local people.
“During the winter months, when the number of tourists exploring the Dales by rail is lower, we have extra capacity on our services – which allows us to offer this special discount.
“I would encourage all residents across North Yorkshire and Cumbria to get themselves a ‘Dales Railcard’ and enjoy all the region has to offer – at half price.”
Northern is the second largest train operator in the UK, with nearly 2,000 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England.
