Hardly an original idea is it? Poor commuters in the South Yorkshire area had to suffer the "bard of Barnsley" a few years ago on services. Perhaps if they want to win favour with commuters FGW could cut the garnish and try to provide a reasonable level of rail service once in a while. Interesting idea there FGW and decent service in the same sentence.
Presumably commuter numbers will show a sudden dip around August 14th to 17th in the following areas then.....
Reading, Oxford, Bath, Bristol, Exeter, Barnstaple, Paignton and Plymouth stations.
Wonder how much they're paying her for this.
