Southampton has a similar ticket, valid on Bluestar, First, Unilink and W&D I believe.

The Solent Travelcard is valid on any bus in a very large area of South Hampshire (as far as Winchester, Havant and Southampton).  I've never seen anyone buy or use one.  At ^7 they are much more expensive than a sole operator's day ticket.

We have the Southwales network rider ticket which  most of the operators around the south wales area are eccepting with First cymru being the only major exception.

Tickets are about ^7.50 although Newport bus are  still selling them at a slightly lower price.

You also have the Valley lines day explorer which is valid on train services operated by ATW (Arriva Trains Wales (former Train Operating Company))FGW (First Great Western) (Cardiff - Bridgend only) and on bus services operated by Stagecoach but also on certain routes operated by other operators.
