A would be rail passenger was refused travel on a train to Gloucester this morning because they weren't wearing a mask.

British Transport Police, who were on patrol on the 07.08 train from Worcester to Gloucester, said that the majority of passengers were complying with rules about wearing face coverings.

Writing on twitter, British Transport Police said the passenger who had not worn a mask 'was refused travel and is now waiting two hours for the next train, complete with mask and a valid ticket'.
