1) Pro Train Rheintal! Seriously, I was in Germany recently and travelling down the rhine in an ICE, particularly the Koblenz - Bingen section, is a great journey.

2) Any sort of suburban route really - particularly Southern, Great Eastern, and the south end of the WCML.

[isambardkingdombrunel]

Paddington - Milford Haven.
What a silly question.


IKB.
