UK / GB senior railcard outside the UK?
Upvote:-3
While there is no intentionally-provided value for the card outside of the UK as detailed in Chris H's answer, perhaps as a matter of fringe value the card might be deemed an acceptable form of proof of age in countries where there are senior discounts offered without the need for a special card to redeem the discount, such as Belgium.

No, the railcard doesn't carry any benefits outside of the UK.
From the FAQ page you linked in the question:
Which train companies give Railcard discounts?
You can use your Railcard on all franchised train operating companies that provide services within England, Scotland and Wales.
Railcards do not give discounts on Eurostar services, Charter services, and Heritage Railways unless state otherwise.
and
Can I use my Railcard on any Train Company?
Yes. Your Railcard is accepted by all of the Train Companies who operate Passenger Railway Services in Great Britain, except Eurostar. Special excursions and charters are also excluded.
There's no explicit statement that non-UK services aren't included (except those in Ireland), but the FAQs provide a straightforward and reasonably specific description of where the card is valid (and of the services within that region which are excluded), with no mention of any validity outside the UK.
This strikes me as a case where an absence of evidence is very strong evidence of absence. If the cards were accepted by (for example) Deutsche Bahn or other foreign train service providers, this would surely be mentioned in the above FAQs.
