Is there a discount card available for seniors' travel in Spain?

Renfe, the national railway, has a "tarjeta dorada" discount card for seniors. It costs 5 euro, and gets you good discounts on all but the most luxe tickets.

You have to purchase the Tarjeta Dorada in person with your passport at the train station.

We are using the Tarjeta Dorada now and the average discount is about 20%. Only correction I’d make is that I believe we paid 6 euro each. Took less than 5 minutes at the train counter to purchase and links to your passport number.

You can renew for 3 years and it will be 5 euros per year (or it was when we renewed last summer).

Many thanks, that was the discount card I was thinking about, just could not remember its name In my search, I also uncovered a 15% discount (maybe one time?) that Alsa bus offers called ALSA PLUS and registered for it - just to let you know. Fondly sandi, already in that wonderful 'anticipation' mode, even though date of departure is not until mid September, Norte.
