Plans to simplify rail fares on cross-country train routes
have been warmly welcomed by UKIP’s Transport spokesman.Jill Seymour MEP described the Rail Delivery Group’s proposals as ‘a welcome dose of common sense’ and said they could save travellers hundreds of pounds.
A trial scheme will be launched in May, initially for people travelling between Scotland and the south west of England.
“I’m sure that this is going to be a success, and I’d like to see it rolled out across the whole of the UK’s railway network as soon as possible,” said Mrs Seymour.
“Anything which simplifies things for commuters – and has the potential to save them a great deal of money by making the cheapest price tariffs more transparent – should be warmly welcomed.”
