How much will your rail fare increase by?

Rail fares will increase by an average of 6.2 per cent in the New Year.

In one of the largest rail fare increases in years, train operators have hit popular routes with extravagant prices.

Some prices have nearly quadrupled since last year, as many operators have changed train times classifications from 'off-peak' to 'peak', allowing companies to increase their prices without permission from regulators.

Among the hardest hit, are passengers travelling from Bournemouth to London, with increases of up to 6.8 per cent.
