I see most of the papers have quoted the First anytime single fare, but surely she must have a railcard?  Probably 'Friends and Royal Family'... Paul |

I wonder if that train ran under the reporting number "1X01" or whatever is used for the royal train these days... If it did then the signallers would have made damn sure not to delay it if at all possible!

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

A delightful report form The Times, wonderfully tongue-in-cheek. And most importantly from a rail perspective, totally accurate. (Edit: Apart from the reference to a 'buffet car') |
