About this photo
Applying through the Rail Delivery Group? The 26-30 Railcard photo it wants measures 35 by 45 mm. Neutral expression, eyes open, mouth closed, looking straight at the camera. You can take it at home on a phone: have someone stand a couple of metres away at eye level rather than holding the phone yourself. If you apply online (Rail Delivery Group online application), the file must be as a JPEG, no larger than 5 MB. A white or light grey or off-white background is accepted, as long as it is uniform and without pattern. Your head, chin to crown, should measure 32 to 36 mm on the print. Send us any clear picture and you get a 26-30 Railcard photo at these measurements, background included, checked before checkout.
