A report form the Association of Train Operating Companies (ATOC) says that rail travel is now at its highest peacetime level since 1928. The number of train journeys reached 1.3bn in 2010. ATOC claims this is down to the rising cost of motoring and perhaps surprisingly good service and attractive pricing!
Overall the proportion of the population using the train has actually decreased with the amount of usable track having more than halved since the heyday of the 1920s.
