For Greater Bristol "local" fares, the following are of note
- Severn Beach line remains unchanged
- Filton to Temple M up 9.3%
- Bath to Bristol up 9.5%
- Parson St to Temple Meads up 5%
And if you want a laugh a 1 week season from Pilning to Temple Meads is up 9.5%, at a "bargain" ^21.80 - valid on...erm... two trains per week :-)

My ticket- a Y-P single from Warminster to Oldfield park has gone up by 25p - ^4.95 to ^5.20. That is pretty steep especially for a railcard fare, but I do enjoy the journey.

From what i saw in Devon today, no fare increases between Barnstaple, Paignton, Exmouth and Exeter, on or off peak. In fact the only change i noticed after a quick scan through the avantix, was a reduction in a SDR from Barnstaple to Exeter. It used to be ^11 plus but is now ^9.50.
