With an Uptoyou Ticket you can travel all railways operated by the Pacific Railroad Company. When you buy or order such a ticket, you can determine a period in which the card can be used. All possibilities between three days and one year are possible. The validation date is in the upper right corner of the card cover. The date is written like this: YYMMDD-YYMMDD. So if the term is from April 12, 2008 until May 16, 2008, then the date of the card is written this way: 080412-080516.
