The 144s are a brilliant train. The interiors are comfy, it's a shame it's stifling onboard and lacks tables but everything else is great on them.
It's a shame that the 142s aren't like them.
Their Preston service is also a shambles. Don't worry, you're not alone. They have no good customer support and instead of upgrading the ruined Solos or taking one of their double deckers back off Cosgrove's (still in PBT pre - stagecoach livery) or looking into some larger buses (not sure if...
A good bus station that I'd like to nominate is Preston. Okay where my local bus stops it's recently been done up with a full seat replacement and paint job as well as the introduction of appealing buildings. This is next to one of about 4 exits which take you to different parts of the city...
I'm saying this in serious jest, and I know it's no way near feasible but what are your thoughts on spiked level crossings? I'm more than aware that people could step on them and cars will run them over but vehicles won't be able to get past.

In all fairness this is great news. The part of the bus station I use has recently had an upgrade and it's got lots of safe access points imo. (I've used them all in my time)
Anyway, slightly OT but how's the St John's exit doing? Not been that way in ages, looks like there's a lot down there...
If you go a few places to the right and look at the Mk3s you will see one that appears to be split, rather like the famous 2-car 390 at Newton, Scotland.

Speaking of Carrefour, the one in Calais has an uncountable amount of aisles imo.
How about Waitrose Bridport - about 12 aisles but it's very long and has unnumbered areas too. Same for Morrisons and Asda in Preston
Voyagers have faster acceleration so would be more suited to the stoppers. The HSTs can then take on the plentiful amounts of passengers travelling between the bigger stops. Hopefully more passengers will then be inclined to use the faster, more comfortable HSTs.
