GNER, the train operator, looks set to offer Wi-Fi networks on its rolling stock, after seeing strong demand for the service.

The company was planning to offer the service by May 2007, but due to public demand has put this forward to August, nine months ahead of the schedule. It has already enabled over half of it's 41 trains so far.

First class passengers will get the service for free, but all others will have to cough up, thirty minutes of access costs £2.95, an hour costs £4.95, and two hours costs £9.95.
