Renfe offer discounts of between 25 and 40% on rail tickets if you're 60 or over and purchase a "Tarjeta Dorada" card for 6 euros. Renfe's website says that you can purchase one from a Renfe station. Does anyone know the nearest place I can get one? This is what the Renfe site says

"If you are 60 years old, make the most of the advantages and convenience of travelling by train and apply for a Tarjeta Dorada card. This card will entitle you to purchase tickets for any train and class. On Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays you will receive a 40% discount. On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays the discount will be 25%.
The Tarjeta Dorada card is valid for one year and can be purchased at Renfe stations, Ticket Offices and Travel Agencies for € 6. There is also the option of obtaining a Tarjeta Dorada card linked to credit and debit cards issued by some banks."

You can get one from the Rail station in Alicante. You will need your passport. It is 6 € . I got one there last year ;)

If you have a Ciaxa Bank Debit card there is a RENFE icon on it and it is the same as a Dorada Card

Thanks. I'm looking at travelling to Valencia, from San isidro, via Alicante in December. I was hoping to get the pass and then book it online. I'll try Rosa's and see what they say. My bank account isn't with Caixa, unfortunately.

What does the RENFE logo look like on the Caiva debit card look like as there is nothing obvious on my debit card or am I just being thick?

Thanks, Jpeg, I never knew that.

In my case it's on my Caixa Credit Card, not on my Caixa Debit Card. But whatever, it's good to know.
