Looks good, nice and simple, doesn't have annoying animations that slow down your PC, or stupid amounts of Pink, unlike the TPE website :lol:

How often do you ride on Chiltern Railways services - for what the line is some trains are 8 carriages long.

Even during the middle of the day they quite often run 6 carriages.

From Birmingham International / Coventry, passengers should either drive to Warwick Parkway or travel with CrossCountry Trains to Banbury for onward Chiltern services to Marylebone.
Yorkie won't approve of that advice ;)

First Scotrail's Site is nice and simple, the exception to First's sites, which all look good if your PC can load them, but miracles don't happen everyday!

The only problem with FSR's site is that it's obviously not up to date. Christmas shoppers!?!

I don't understand with FCC's site why you have to select to be a business traveller, commuter or leisure traveller. Can't they just display the information on the same page. Similarly on FSR's site, why do only business travellers want to know station facilities?

Christmas shoppers is part of the Christmas timetable alterations.......which is IIRC what that link links to.

Virgin have the worst for finding out travel news, or timetables......slightly better now with only one franchise worth of info.

I sometimes query the differnece between "Business Travllers" and "Commuters". In many places, I can see the difference, but in Scotland the two are mostly under the same category. We don't do the sma ecrazy commutes that you do in England, though.
