Peter White talks to David Sindall from the Association of Train Operating Companies and Nick Lester Corporate Director for London Councils about the Freedom Pass and the Disabled Person's Railcard In the run-up to the 50th Anniversary of the programme, we trawl the In Touch archive and hear from Paul and Martin Sutton, then aged 10, as they took a trip to Broxbourne Zoo, hoping to stroke a lion cub.
