Rebecca Turner's rail protest caught the imagination of thousands of travellers
If you travel to work by train or underground, there must have been times when you've felt frustrated by delays. So did Rebecca Turner in Sydney, Australia. But she decided to lead an all-out revolt against the against the state run rail company - and so she's been dubbed Captain Commuter!
She organised a day's protest when passengers would refuse to pay their fares. The company backed down and gave them all free travel on Monday.
Martha speaks to Rebecca in Sydney, and asks her what had led her to become the leader of this railway rebellion.
