Today Andrew speaks with French singer, composer, and harpist Laura Perrudin about the pressure mounting towards the French government and the national train service, the SNCF, to change the ban against musical instruments on Intercity and TGV services in the country which has been strictly enforced since January 1st 2021 and what you can do to help her collective make it easier for musicians travelling by rail in the country.
