  2014 rail fares

type Press release
Michael Roberts, director general of the Rail Delivery Group which speaks on behalf of the rail industry, said: “We strongly support the Government’s decision to limit the average increase in Season ticket prices this year.
This, combined with the determination of train companies to continue attracting passengers, means the average increase across all fares is 2.8%, the lowest in four years. To help the Government hold down fares in future, the rail industry is working hard to get more for every pound it spends.
“This year and in coming years, passengers across the country will continue to benefit from billions of pounds spent on improving services. As well as introducing more carriages, work will proceed on major projects like the new Birmingham New Street station and thousands of smaller, less visible schemes to improve the railway.”
