Quick question about Railcard Renewal

[Train Maniac]

So ive had a 16-25 Railcard for the last couple of years and have recieved an email to get it renewed (im oficially getting old )
When signing into my account and selecting the 26-30 railcard the only option is to get a digital copy. Have all plastic railcards been discontinued?

I renewed my Senior Railcard in plastic form last month.

Unfortunately 26-30 Railcards have only ever been available in digital format. Rather frustrating as there are still a number of issues with that format, but you don't get a choice if you want one.

Other Railcards are still available in physical format and will, I suspect, remain so for at least the foreseeable future.

26-30 is unfortunately only avaliable digitally! Its a bit odd and I don't know why!

I presume it kept the launch cost to a minimum of a few software tweaks.

I found Trainsplit's app very reliable when I had a digital railcard.

Yes and avoided distributing yet another two kinds of ticket blanks to stations.
