Breaking news, Her Maj was to travel by Pacer to Matlock but a technical fault caused the plan to be cancelled

She should have stayed on her train and reserved a couple of coaches for the the service passengers

She regularly uses 365s too

Well Manchester United charter a whole first class train to take their players and acolytes to matches. At least the Queen brings in money and trade to our country. Footballers evade tax and contribute relatively little. The queen is entitled to comfort(as we all are)

Most football clubs travelling to the North West/From the North West do so, I wouldn't label Man Utd as the only one's who do it! :roll:

I think Pacer jokes are becoming rather boring. I'm no Monarchist but local children in Matlock enjoyed themselves yesterday and the Queen put a smile on people’s faces. What’s wrong with that?

Are we reading the same thread ?, where does the "What's wrong with that?" come from ? I certainly can't see anyone complaining about the Queens visit

It was a reference to post number 23. I'm still curious to know what relevance attempts at Pacer jokes have to the Matlock branch.

No doubt everyone has their own opinion but I didn't think that jokes were supposed to have a definite relevance, they're just jokes and let's face it, Pacers have been the butt of jokes for ever, more than a few drivers I met seemed to think that the Matlock branch was a joke as well
