London of course have had this for a while now, but TfGM have recently introduced a £2 hopper fare within their franchising scheme.

Not sure it would really work up here because of the ruralality of the network; like Washington to Durham is a reasonable journey but coming out of Durham it'd be practically impossible since it's 50 minutes on the 50. 

If you give it longer than an hour, then it might aswell be a day ticket.

Obviously nothing wrong with doing in addition of the day ticket though like Manchester for those in urban areas as I know they have a £5 day ticket aswell. I wouldn't complain for doing both of those, but not sure we have the funds to be funding a £2 single and a £5 day ticket because of the sheer size of the network.
