    Who's ever seen a train delayed or trains just stop running leaving passengers stranded?. It happens more and more so often it hard to count. And the prices are a joke for a terrible service. Im sure none of this nonsense happens in Europe. The rail system is a mess theres always something wrong. It happened to me last week ended up spending 40 pounds to get to and from my destination. Signal fult strikes etc etc.

      @@andyfletcher3375 Oh, I didn't look that closely to see that was so, from a casual glance it looked "less than that" - yes, on closer scrutiny you're right, just like motor shows etc but draped over a train as it were. Time for Specsavers !
