Title: Common WiFi like common ticketing and timetables?
Post by: grahame on March 17, 2014, 13:45:52
With common (national rail) timetable products, and common tickets offered between any two stations (a few exceptions), can we look forward to common WiFi provision on trains where I can sign up for a single account and use it on whichever train I'm on rather than having to sign up for two accounts if I change from (say) Cross Country to Virgin.

No, unlikely.

Unless one provider does a seriously good deal with all TOCs (provision free, maybe)

Interesting to see what people think of on train online connection ...
