Fed-up Southern Rail passengers plan to charter their own train in a bid to beat the strikes that have crippled the network and caused commuter chaos [Daily Mail]
Date: 10/12/2016
Fed-up passengers that use crisis-hit Southern Rail are considering chartering their own train to get to work after another round of staff strikes were announced. The audacious bid by the Reigate, Redhill and District Rail Users Association does not come cheap, with the cost of hire coming in at £35,000. This works out as an eye-watering £50 for a return journey from Surrey to London if the train hold 670 passengers.
