I know! But whatever they spend on the line is useless while ever we have Voyagers travelling along the line! But..........CC are about to solve this problem by stopping all of their services at Exeter! So, we won't have that problem after December 2017 but we also won't have much of a service!
Cross Country only own (lease) five HSTs, which is why we see very few of them down here. The CC trains are the original Virgin Voyagers made by..........Virgin..........byword for cheap and nasty!! Sadly, people, like CC, use the word average to get out of all sorts of arguments. They will tell us we see many more passengers on individual trains but say the AVERAGE NUMBER is........ and it is ...

I don't know where this is but it is a growing problem in Dawlish. Luscombe Terrace is a nightmare some days with so many large work vans parked halfway or more on the pavement. Anyone with a pushchair or with mobility problems would find it difficult if not impossible to use the pavement. Princes Street is the same, yesterday every car on the right hand side was parked on the pavement, anyone in ...
I agree DEEDOODLE, how do we go about it?
All well and good but they also need to build trains that don't break down when they get hit by waves!
