It's for determining which Railcards (for discounted tickets) you can get in the UK.

The 31-59 bracket doesn't get any Railcard options unless they want a Two Together card (for couples travelling together), a family card (same but with kids) or a special one for London commuters if you happen to travel at peak times and live near London. Younger and older people get cards based on their age alone for solo travel discounts
