PassengerFocus - on another planet

Is this for real?

This from TransportXtra...

Virgin’s Pendolinos have received the worst rating of any long distance train in a Passenger Focus survey... However, another modern train, the Meridian fared best.

You've got to be kidding.

Better than an HST?

Never!


Meridians have the worst seat alignment of any train on the network.

Even in first class the seats appear to have been designed to minimise the view of the outside world.


And has anybody ever succeeded in making a call or keeping an internet connection open in the dreadful things.

They may thump and rattle but at least you can connect to the outside world on a Bendydildo.
