    Railways and the Coronavirus

    12 passengers in four hours? Surely it must be worth just using buses for these routes now, that’s on average fewer than one person per train (plus the guard and the driver)….. But impressive that so many people aren’t travelling and are obeying instructions.

  • Norwich – Toiletgate 2

    We’ve had a minor issue, as mentioned here, with regards to this Greater Anglia bullet train having to stop at numerous stops en route for prolonged periods so customers can use the station facilities. What the driver of this train seems unaware of is that customers in the first few rows of the front carriage can hear his full dialogue to the guard and others, which has so far included the c-word, the f-word, the s-word and a word I’ve had to look up on Google. Anyway, we’ve reached Thetford and the train I’m connecting to is being delayed behind this one, so I shouldn’t miss it…..
