We were visiting the Stockport TfGM Travelshop yesterday to obtain some leaflets and there was a long queue of elderly holders of TfGM-issued English National Concessionary Travel Scheme passes who were paying a new £10 annual train and tram surcharge to be entered on the chip on their cards. I understand the surcharge comes into operation on 1st February 2020 and will be an annual surcharge should the holders of those passes require train and tram travel within the TfGM borders.
Although after our recent locationary move, we still reside exterior to those TfGM areas, I do remember the matter of both free train and tram travel being available to the holders of such TfGM-issued ENCTS passes in the TfGM areas being mentioned on many threads in the past on this website as being wrong. So I suppose that particular matter will now cease to be the bone of contention it once was on this website.
