The graph below shows the number of passenger railway journeys made in Great Britain between 1950 and 2004/5. 0oV5
The line chart illustrates how many trips are made by passenger on three railway systems in Great Britain from 1950 to 2004/05. It is clear that between 1950 and 1960, the National rail network sprung up slightly from 1, 000 to approximately 1, 125 million passengers. However, from 1960 to the early 1980s, it declined rapidly by roughly 500 million passengers. Likewise, contemporaneously, the London Underground experienced a parallel, remained stable in the early period and then was a considerable deterioration of 500 million passengers. During 1980 and 2004/5, National rail network and London Underground suddenly peaked at roughly 1, 125 and 1, 000 million passengers respectively. By comparison, in the 1960s, the light rail and metro systems embarked on working unfavorably by carrying fewer passengers than the other two networks, no more than about 10 million during the first 15 years. However, when the other two networks went down, the number of journey made by passengers soared up, reaching around 200 million in 2004/05. Overall, the number of trips made by passenger on National rail network and London Underground fluctuated while the trend for Light rail and metro systems is upward.
