Good news for East Midlands Trains passengers!
This from the Independent...
Some rail passengers will have to fork out for fare rises of up to 145 per cent from next week.
The East Midlands Trains company is making alterations to some of its Travelcard tickets which will affect passengers travelling in the morning from Market Harborough, Kettering and Wellingborough to London.
Presumably Stagecoach supremo Brian Souter needs all the pennies he can get if he is to buy the rail and bus businesses of the doomed National Express Group.
Meanwhile, don't expect DafT to kick up a fuss over EMT's swinging fare increases.
If Souter can raise the necessary gee-gaws to buy C2C and NXEA it will save DafT the public humiliation of testing Cross Default in court.
Happy days!
