Pendolino from Birmingham New Street to Rugby. Stood in the vestibule between a couple of the first class coaches as second was standing room only. And jealously looking at the 4 first class passengers with a coach each to themselves. Perhaps Virgin could declassify one or two on the fly where necessary.

10:36 Arriva Trains Wales service from Talybont(Cambrian Coast) - Smethwick Galton Bridge.
Good trip aside from the length, just under 4 hours and the people that kept wanting to sit by me when there was plenty of other seats. Every seat full leaving Shrewsbury, shows how popular these services are

21:08 Thorpe Bay to Southend Central.

Actually when i got off i noticed a smashed window by the toilet (so not too big a problem) but still told the bloke behind the ticket office, he told me that they knew and it had been out most of the day :o .
