You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Reading to Elmstead Woods for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16-25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard). Discover more here.

Split Tickets for greater savings
