DISABLED PERSONS RAILCARD?

Update - been and did London with my Disabled Train Travelcard. Worked brilliantly on all trains we used and I had a discount only for myself (not hubby as on trains) on the tubes. Absolutely wonderful, no hiccups and saved quite a bit of money which is what it's all about Many thanks for your input.

I have had use of Disabled Person Travelcard for many years, both when I was living in London and continuing now that I live in Somerset.
Using this means that train travel is economic for me, and thanks to the wonderful Passenger Assistance, I am able to travel to visit friends and my family all over England in my travel electric wheelchair, and on my own. Gives me so much independence.
I know this does not reply to the query about usage in London, but felt I must say how wonderful Passenger Assistance is both on the trains and on the London Underground.
Lovely people - all of them.

Thanks for the information all, I will have a look to see the best way forward. Seems a bit of a hassle but a lot of things are I suppose.

I have a DP railcard and always ring them direct and ask for help, I've always got a "real person" on the line, and nice too, I would try that.

See the link below. You and your husband only get the discount if you buy a travelcard to come into London. To qualify for discounted travel whilst in London, eg on day 2 of your stay, you will need to add your railcard to an Oyster card. You will need to apply for an Oyster card in advance and have you dpr added. Your husband doesn’t qualify for the discount.
