(Yesterday, 10:44 am)Storx wrote To be fair the cap down there is probably actually negative.

£6 for a return from somewhere like Eston to Middlesbrough isn't good value imo, and without checking there's nothing cheaper these days. Is it much of a surprise that numbers are down and that's before mentioning Redcar was a shambles and cancelling services left, right and centre

The fare cap is questionable as £3 is only good value, if you're travelling a long distance, but within cities/towns etc it's bad value imo.
