The Metro reports that Britain’s railways will undergo their “greatest shake-up” in 25 years to coincide with the planned end of lockdown – with the arrival of pay as you go, contactless payments and digital ticketing on smartphones. The “rail revolution” will also see the introduction of a new national flexi season ticket which would allow passengers to travel on any eight days in a 28-day period, and the formation of a new public body called Great British Railways to oversee all train services.
