The Blind Companion Card Scheme pilot is launching on the 1st April, where blind and partially sighted will be able to travel with a companion without charge.

Amelia went along to the launch event at Anniesland Station in Glasgow to speak to Sight Scotland, Scotrail and MSP Kaukab Stewart.

Here she is speaking with a representative for Scotrail.
