Found this comment from Richard, London, 27/7/2009 after the mail article "I'm an ex rail worker, I left because the rail industry is a total shambles.
You only need to know these three simple facts for you to understand rail pricing -
1/ Trains can only have a limited number of carriages, because they have to fit existing platforms.
2/ You can only have one train on a stretch of track at a time - safety.
3/ So, the ONLY way to control overcrowding on popular services is to keep putting the price up for that service.
Get the picture ? They cannot handle more customers, unless you want to go from Plymouth to Penzance.Lots of jobs for the commuter there."Simples init or is it,Thoughts?
