Commenting on latest figures from the Office of Rail Regulation showing a record number of passenger journeys made in 2013/14, a spokesman for the Rail Delivery Group, which speaks on behalf of the rail industry, said:

"Rail travel is more popular now than for decades thanks to an industry focused on attracting more passengers, combined with a commitment by successive governments to invest over the long term. This strong partnership between the public and private sectors is helping to reduce unit costs while improving and expanding a vital public service, delivering for passengers, taxpayers and the country as a whole.”
