So the funding is going to hit a smaller proportion of passengers than I initially thought?
It really does make me laugh, that in the era of privatisation and de-regulation, bus companies and toc's still recieve massive handouts from the taxpayer. Even more so when the majority cant or wont be able to access it.
For years residents in Sunderland complained they were paying for the Metro and couldnt access it and moan about having to pay for the airport - yet the majority remain silent on paying for toc's when they only have access to Northern Rail and probably wont be able to access this GPS system rolled out onto certain GNE routes.
*climbs down off soapbox
Hope everyone has a nice day!
