PEAK rail fares are to be scrapped under a six-month pilot scheme, the Scottish Government has announced.
Deputy First Minister John Swinney announced that £15 million will be spent to remove peak fares on Scotland's railway for an initial period of six months, as the Scottish Government seeks to get more people using public transport.
Last week train drivers’ union Aslef wrote to John Swinney and the First Minister Nicola Sturgeon to request peak fares be removed.
