Sportzs bar If you read my last post you will see I mention corporate greed, so I’m well aware of the bigger picture. I am also very well connected to people in the industry. I am also very aware that the majority of staff want a system that works as it frustrates them too. However there comes...

Not Jealous in any way, I obviously have a different work ethic, I have always put others before myself (to the extreme in many cases) and as a result have had a very rewarding life both financially and morally. I see the railways as a chaotic mess driven by corporate greed v unions. I would be...

I have spent my entire working live working for the Queen and country and more recently self employed. I have worked weekends & nights and all manner of un-social hrs (and still do). It really makes me angry when I hear you rail workers moaning about pay and conditions and not being allowed to...

This large digital screen will probably show multiple adverts on a loop. The adverts will change constantly in line with the national or international campaigns that media Company is hosting. Digital adverts are designed to be eye catching so don’t expect that back wall to be visually peaceful

Advertising and retail space makes more money than running trains, good business sense to me. The same has happened at airport terminals. Advertising relies on footfall, the site needs non rail revenue.

Please see my previous post on this subject from way back when. Told you so, “In my mind this is nothing to do with customer convenience it’s all about advertising revenue, the old space will be covered with more digital advertising screens that generate thousands from advertising campaigns...
