Original Note:
The government does not directly have control over increases to rail fares as the majority of trains in the UK are run by private companies. However they can intervene in some respect by capping the percentage they can increase rather than relying on the RPI as they did in 2022 https://www.gov.uk/government/news/biggest-government-intervention-ever-to-keep-rail-fares-down
