  1. 1. South Western Railway
    2. C2C
    3. Greater Anglia
    4. Avanti West Coast (to follow)

  2. London northwestern / West Midlands rail seem to cancel every other train out of euston at the last hour, it’s ridiculous – can’t wait for them to die a death.

  3. Why are people so sure that nationalized railways will perform better? Genuinly curious. For example, my experience with Deutche Bahn was quite bad this year- much worse than whatever I experienced in the UK.

  4. This hasn’t gone down well in Tory strongholds on the C2C line (which has admittedly been quite reliable since Trenitalia took it over). Local pages are ablaze, reminiscing about how awful British Rail was etc.

  5. Nationalisation is the key to bring prices down and improve services. It stops price gouging and profiteering – only downside is the government have zero clue how to run a business.
