Er, because the Senior Railcard people don't know you now have a Disabled Person's Railcard.

It's my understanding that DSB Railcards are administered seperately from other railcards. They used to have a seperate office in Arbroath, but it now appears their physical address is the same as most other railcards. I'd hazard a guess they are still administered seperately though as DSB Railcards require evidence of entitlement from third party agencies.

Dear Mr Ellis,

Your Senior Railcard has expired!

You need to act fast to keep saving 1/3 on rail travel.

Yes, my Senior Railcard has expired.  I now have a disable person's railcard.    Why are you emailing me with what I believe to be incorrect advice, and suggest I spend on a card that's no additional use to me with a threat of loosing discount?
