I was just checking out BBC news as I grabbed a coffee at work to see there is already talk about the rise in rail fares next year - apparently double that of inflation, here is the article if you want to check it out. There is no mention of the actual figures yet.

Now, this extra money will be used as an investment to improve the network. I used to get so incensed when a new increase was introduced, whereas right now as I read it, I am 1) not surprised by this announcement and 2) mildly hopeful that it will improve the service I receive. Am I being naive? Or should I just return to my cynical self?
What are your thoughts on the matter, do you think our already expensive tickets should be kept at the price that they are? Wonder what Greater Anglia think...thoughts kindly welcomed!
Rubbish. I am cynical about this crap, nothing ever gets better!!! xx LOL
ReplyDeletewhen will we know the actual figures? Just wondering how much my Chelmo to Liverpool St annual ticket is going to cost?
ReplyDeletenot sure when the bad news will be published, but I can only imagine that it will be close to the 6.2% that was quoted...as it's a government based thing rather than GA making the calls...
