How much would a child's train ticket cost?

Answer 1

The price of a child's train ticket depends on various factors.

First of all, where the child will be traveling affects the price. The longer the distance traveled, the higher the ticket price. Prices will alse be different depending on which rail line you use and the type of ticket needed.

Secondly, the age of the child and how many adults are traveling with the child can affect the price.

For National Rail in the UK, a child under the age of 5 may be able to travel for free with a fare-paying passenger. Ages 5 to 15 get a 50% discount on most tickets.

For Amtrak in the US, one child under the age of 2 rides free with a fare-paying adult. Additional children under the age of 2 and children ages 2 to 15 may receive a 50% discount with a fare-paying adult, with a limit of 2 children per adult.
