Rail fares add to rise again in the new year up to a max of 3.1%.
RMT union general secretary Mick Cash called it "another kick in the teeth for passengers on Britain's rip-off privatised railways".
Do you think the increase will further decrease passenger numbers?

“BBC News” said:Millions of commuters will have to pay an average of 3.1% more for rail tickets from 2 January.
The rise, announced by industry body the Rail Delivery Group, follows a year of disruption on some lines.
There had been calls for a price freeze following the chaos caused by the introduction of new timetables in May.
The rise, which is lower than the 3.4% average rise for fares in 2018, means another £100 for a Manchester to Liverpool annual season ticket.
