I understand it happens everywhere it just seems more common in some places than others !

Hate this kind of thing and it just seems to be the way that the public think they can treat railway staff. Just typical that four of them had to be scousers  .... I am from the wirral just across from Liverpool and work for Merseyrail and scenes like this are a common sight on the local network unfortunatly ,It makes me ashamed to be from the same area as the scum responsible for this !!
Hope all is well with the guard but there really needs to be something more done because in my opinion the btp dont do enough to protect railway staff everything seems to go against the victims of the crime instead of the culprits these days. 

Thanks for that everyone ! lol @ poor us staying in paignton 

Hi everyone I stayed in paignton last week with a friend and happend to notice for the whole week there was not one single class 143 on the exmouth/barnstaple/paignton lines have they moved again because I couldent even see any on exeter st davids sidings! Whats happend to them ?

The past few times I have travelled on this It has come to my attention that there are no phone chargers in the carriages unlike the hst sets anyone know why ??

Hello there how is everyone ? Im a young lad who currently works on the railway for Merseyrail and I have been reading this forum/Website for a while and finally decided to join. I hope one day to move to the south west of england as it seem's the ideal place to settle and has one of the most beautiful parts of railway in the country and maybe the world ,and also hope one day to get a job working for First great western . Thanks folks sorry for the long introduction.
