I always like this clip, but not sure if it's entirely subject specific! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXUvKC1d-SM&

Warwick Parkway is pretty much next to the village of Budbrooke.

Leamington Spa had one until recently - she was called Turbo and once boarded a train and ended up in Birmingham (I think)

BBC News are claiming Trains aren't running in Birmingham. But National Rail twitter/service updates are saying it's fine. The reason i'm mentioning this is that i'm changing at New Street tomorrow afternoon.

I noticed that the Furniture Store that was set alight was right next to the Tramlink, it looked like the tracks were on fire too.

This happened to me a month or so ago on a service from Coventry to New Street - the difference was there were FOUR people involved! Making good use of the toilet space on the Voyager it would seem.

I'd say in the last two months i've been on about 4 or 5 double Voyager services out of around 40 journeys. On the Manchester - Bournemouth service. Seem to be common in the evenings between Coventry and Leamington.

Beaulieu Road instantly springs to mind. It's in the middle of nowhere... Warwick is a good 15 minute walk into the town centre. Hatton Station is a good mile or so from the actual village. Claverdon is about half a mile out of the village

Nuneaton-Bedworth-Coventry-Leamington. Hourly. Would relieve overcrowding at peak hours on the hourly Cross Country service between Leamington and Coventry.

There is a wooden bridge on the line however, it passes over the River Ray, I think the limit over this particular bridge is 25MPH.

Rightly so! I'm sick of drivers blaming the railways for their idiocy. Suppose it doesn't help when Phillip Hammond comes out and says that Cars should have priority over Trains, though. This country.

On the 11:25 from Coventry to Leamington yesterday I noticed half the contents of a Starbucks coffee shop on two seats. Disgusting. I don't mind the odd paper here and there but sometimes it goes too far.

At New Street you could easily get away with flashing any old ticket at the ticket inspectors considering the amount of people who use the station.

Wasn't that hard! About a 15 minute bus ride.

It's the same at Coventry's new-ish ground. It's right next to the Coventry - Nuneaton which only sees one service an hour in each direction. It's crying out for a halt! Oh and as a side note I didn't make it up to the Globe Arena this season but I shall be there next season.
