Great as the the 2 railways are, I do feel that the timings could be reduced in the case of the WHR especially. With the best will in the world, it should not take 5.5 hours to do the round trip, its hard on young children and the elderly!! No need to be at stations for 10 mins IMHO, given 5 stations that's 50 mins just "waiting" ! Sure the timings could be reduced and a non-stop service might be better for block bookings and coach parties!!
