Hey, hey, you, you, get off of our trains.
The north-south train is not such a nonsense as you think.
I realise that it is useful and it compares favourably to the road alternatives (I am driving to Aberdaron next month so I will find out how poor the roads are), but is it really the rail priority for wales? Improving the valley lines to Cardiff would help many more people.
The problem with the
WAG» epress is that it connects two areas that for
political reasons (because Wales is a single nation) have been deemed in need of connection, rather than two areas that a large number of people actually travel between. Surely there is greater demand for either better commuter services (which are unexciting but would really spread the wealth out of Cardiff into the poorer parts of the country) or cross boarder services (which are politically difficult because WAG can't be seen to fund English railways (dispite the fact that the WAG express travels through England).
It just seems weird that there is a high quality restaurant service if you want to get to holyhead from cardiff, but not if you want to get to London.
