As I sit in a first class carriage, on my way back to Sunderland, I thought I would take the time to say thanks to all the people at National Express East Coast for making the east coast service a fantastic rail service.
The only real service between Peterborough and Newcastle, NXEC (the old GNER) is a benchmark which other train services should look up to.
How funny that a privatised railroad, often overtly critiscied by the many, really is a dream come true. Ticket prices are very competitve, service is fantastic and the efficiency is most noticeable.
On the subject of trains, don't you wish you had a pair of these?!
Where would we be if Beeching had not swung his axe so cruelly? Would we be world leaders in Eco league tables?
