On Britain’s east coast main line, you can surf on rails. The GNER rail company has installed wi-fi internet access on most of its trains, which works well. Browsing the internet and picking up emails at 125mph is a breeze.

But it comes at a cost: £2.95 for 30 minutes, and an extra fiver for two hours.

GNER needs to make it a tad cheaper if it wants to encourage us all to use the service.
