Hi there.

I stumbled upon this board by chance, and thought I'd join to possibly answer some of the questions raised about the trains, service etc people have been posting about.

I am also a member of staff for FGW (First Great Western) (LTV (London [and] Thames Valley)), so I hope to be of use from time to time.

Regards,

Thomas.

Hi Thomas.

Did you ever have problems with Annie and Clarabel packed to the gunnels and creaking at the seams.

All our trains creak Marty. It's something to do with the awful blue vinyl covering...    Wink
