UK train passengers taking middle or long-distance trips are among the most satisfied rail users in Europe, according to a survey published yesterday.
In a 'Eurobarometer' poll of 9,000 passengers from 25 EU countries, 87 per cent of British rail passengers were satisfied with reliability and punctuality – some 35 per cent higher than in Germany.
The UK scored above the EU average in 17 of 19 service areas, including cleanliness and upkeep of stations, ease of buying a ticket, service frequency and punctuality and reliability.
Association of Train Operating Companies spokesperson Edward Welsh said: “Significant investment in recent years has seen quicker and more punctual trains, better stations and an improved overall service for passengers in this country.”
