Great National Express Railways
Yeah, National Express have won the franchise for the east coast route from GNER, it seems.
This seems a bit weird to me. Aren't GNER the only one who are half-decent?

the few times i went up that way on train
it were right quick and easy, but i would say tha that were due mainly to trains being quite quick also.
Most of GNER's
rolling stock was nice and they generally ran a tight ship in a public-facing capacity.
However, their business management was shoddy at best and they're in quite a lot of debt.
Also:
the delays! The murderous delays!
I know most of their journey's ran from Kings Cross all the way up to Leeds or Edinburgh, but as a commuter it was always a better bet to get the slower, more reliable WAGN.
Despite this, I bloody loved the GNER. Especially the glorious White Rose train, with standard class accomodation better than most franchises first class.

This is what happens when you have the Today programme in the background
while you do other stuff.
Sorry.
It's too late Theo.
I'm livid. Seriously livid.

How about if I point out I have rigged my Fantasy Football team for this week on the basis that Portsmouth will do well?
Then you're in for a sound bumming.
