We went via Reading…horrendous!! Had to sit in the toilet with the door open due to overcrowding. Luckily a mate had room on a bus home, which is where we are now. Friends texting us with news of shocking overcrowding on the train home. Mick Lynch is right, invest in more rolling stock rather than pacifying shareholders with huge dividends. How can any company sell more tickets than there are seats available? A theatre or cinema couldn’t do it and have patrons stood packed in the aisles.
