Rail passengers can check ticket prices for 2014 from today (23 December) at stations, online at eastmidlandstrains.co.uk or through National Rail Enquiries. The Chancellor announced in the Autumn Statement on 5 December that the average increase for regulated rail fares, including season tickets, would be 3.1%. This is in line with July’s Retail Price Index (RPI), rather than the previously planned RPI+1%. Following the change, train companies have been resetting the fares valid from 2 January.
East Midlands Trains has confirmed that the average increase across all of its fares will be 2.6%, or an extra 36p on a single journey. This represents the lowest increase in four years. Fares on around 17% of journeys across the East Midlands Trains network will be frozen in January 2014.
