Train operators are preparing to trim railcard discounts, with a pro-rail group describing the move as “a step in the wrong direction”.Fare reductions will be reduced from 34% to 33.4% from September 15, PA news agency reported. Railcards which will be affected include those held by passenger groups such as people aged 16-30 or 60 and over, families travelling with children, people with a disability and military veterans.Discounts are currently calculated as 34%, but train operators will take advantage of an easing of system limitations to apply a smaller reduction of 33.4%.Examples of Anytime Return fare increases for railcard holders include from £194.15 to £195.90 from Cardiff to London, and from £72.60 to £73.25 from Birmingham to Manchester
