Saw that yesterday and was wondering if you have to prove you are a resident to get it.
Looks like anyone can get it, cheap holiday anyone?

A very good way to reduce the impact of increasing fuel costs. Much better than subsidising petrol and diesel which does nothing to reduce long term consumption. It wouldn't help us much though 4 trains a day and infrequent busses but if we were really hard up it would give us an option.

As long as there's capacity why not have it available to anyone. It probably costs pretty much the same if the train is full or empty.

It's what you can do when the government is the majority shareholder in not only your domestic railways but other countries' too . . .

Says it's available to non residents and can be applied for over interweb.

You have to pay extra for push bikes though, which is a pity.

4% domestic energy price increase in France, cheap travel on German trains, the EU is obviously collapsing.
