I've travelled with young people using a friends and family railcard (my kids plus others) and we've never been asked for proof of age, only for the railcard. As Jules says she'll need her railcard if the ticket was purchased with one. I think the Zip may be a good thing just in case as you need a passport/birth certificate to apply for it or a photocopy of her birth certificate/passport. I just think it may be less stressful for her if she is travelling alone, just to have something with her just in case.

Thank you both for your response. She didn't state younger sons railcard . I just was really uncertain as she looks older than her age an was worried she will be questioned about having a child's ticket. I love the fact she is confident in doing things but it does cause a bit of worry !
In which case just take her Zipcard. It would be pretty mean of a guard to bother a young person travlling alone. You could always write a letter with your details on, should the situation arise and to avoid your daughter feeling uncomfortable.

    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face.
