  "account": "LONDON - Trainline plc released a statement on Thursday following the Office of Rail and Road's publication of a draft Retail Code of Practice for public consultation. The draft code sets forth a regulatory framework governing how Great British Railways interacts with rail retail market participants. The draft confirms fair, transparent, and non-discriminatory access to fares, products, systems, and data, as confirmed by the company in its press release. Trainline stated that the proposed framework acknowledges the need for Great British Railways to act without excluding competitors, distorting the online retail market, or abusing its position. The company believes the proposed code and frameworks require further strengthening to fully deliver on this commitment. The rail and coach travel platform affirmed its intention to actively participate in the consultation process, with plans to provide a more comprehensive update on the regulatory landscape during its H1 FY2027 results disclosure on November 4.",
