I have found that the majority of pharmacies in Victoria charge $5.50 for a prescription, but once I crossed the border into N.S.W. it jumped to $6.50. In Victoria train travel is free for me, being DVA Gold card, in N.S.W. it is a flat rate of $2.50. So it probably is a state thing not federal.. The prescription thing is when I show my seniors card in both states. Scripts have been $6.60 here in Vic for ages for me... some are up to $10.20 if they do not stock or have the generic brands. Public transport I have no idea about as I live in the middle of nowhere so it is different to city transport and I also do not use it but I do believe the concession discounts for everything are set by each state.
