Railways are a very sore point with me today Dave.  Yesterday's 9am Intercity to Paddington took no less than 5 hours whereas it usually takes two and a half!  :cry:

luckily my journey to euston and back was much faster and was on time in both directions. meaning I had two hours to wonder (get lost) on the underground. lots of fun.

one thing i found stupid yesterday was the four first class carriages with no one in and i had to walk past each one.. what is the point!

It was the same when I used to commute to London 20 years ago, Sam!  Progress, eh?   :roll:

Yes, you would think that as flying is cheaper than even second class rail travel, in many cases, that first class rail travel would have been discontinued a long time ago.  ???
