Emma Wakefield The Politics Show South East

Those were the days for train travel

South East train users are fed up, the trains are overcrowded and expensive and nothing is joined up.

The RMT says that the Government is not putting in enough money, the commuters associations say the Government should be encouraging more people onto public transport not discouraging them and the local authorities are trying to maintain dwindling rural transport links.

Join presenter Paul Siegert on the commuter trail as he travels on one of the regions busiest commuter lines to London in search of answers.
