September 14th - Abolishing peak-time rail tickets

from Simon Calder's Independent Travel Podcast

Scotland is to abolish peak-time rail fares for a six-month trial.The only “walk-up” fare for immediate purchase and travel will be the cheaper off-peak ticket. Savings for rush-hour commuters will range from 20 to 48 per cent, with passengers between Edinburgh and Glasgow seeing the price almost halve, falling by £14 to £14.90. Could it happen in the rest of the UK?This podcast is free, much like my weekly newsletter.
