  • It's also not working with the current crop of terrible train operating companies. I wouldn't mind the service being so crap of you weren't paying a small fortune for the priviledge.

    One of the most telling things about our train network owners is how much better they are at running train networks in their own countries....where they tend to be held to account and expected to provide a reasonable service.

    Arriva, who are owned by Deutsche Bahn, are a good example.
