The British Rail Passenger's Charter - 1991 [DotD 13.4.2020]

[whole diary]

[grahame]

From circa 1991 - "The Passenger's Charter is a statement of our commitment to provide a high quality service for our passengers" ... "The Charter is the beginning. We aim to improv standards over time, and to develop and improve services in a way that will clearly show our intent to care for our passengers".  - Sir Bob Reid, Chairman, British Railways Board

It is really interesting to look back at this - a 24 page (including covers) document nearly 30 years later.

How has it changed today?    What have we gained and what has been lost?
