Technically Ex-BR staff get 75% discount on season tickets and 50% discount
on turn-up-and-travel tickets.


Not correct, 'safeguarded' staff (i.e. ex-BR) have always got 75%
discount from all standard tube fares, such as singles and returns,
and the same for seasons - although these have to be ordered in
advance with a special form from your TOC. No discounts on bus tickets
though, as previous posters have mentioned.

For example, I bought a single from Waterloo to Paddington last night
for 50p - 75% of the normal £2.00 single fare.
