Train fares on some of the country's busiest routes have increased up to three times faster than the cost of living since the rail industry was privatised 20 years ago, according to a new report.


The Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA) published a list of the biggest rises, saying a walk-on fare from London to Manchester had jumped by 208%, to Exeter by 205% and to Cardiff by 196%.
