Exciting news from Scottish heritage railways
Transport Scotland is planning to introduce an integrated ticketing system based on smart card technology.
Quick off the mark, the Heritage Railway Association's Scottish Committee is lobbying hard to be part of the scheme from day one.
Alas, south of the border, the luddites still rule.
Despite a trial with Season Ticket holders on the Windsor-Staines route, SWT "is still in discussion with the Department for Transport to finalise timescales for (Oyster) rollout to other lines on the network".
A mere five and a half years after the cards were first introduced.
