Im afraid its an annual occurence nowadays, the annual hike in rail fares. The cost of commuting to the great capitol from here is prohibitive. The HST was supposed to bring about a change in our fortunes here in Dover..but sadly it hasnt so far. But it is a great train so maybe it will in the long term ..as long as we are not priced off it.
Although I believe generally rail passenger numbers are soaring, i think I remember this on the news a while back but its just off the top of my head, so maybe the idea of rail fare hike is to limit their use somewhat, curtail the crowds.
The shareholders have to get a return on their investment.
