Train travel in this country is a f**king joke

What, you need more information? Just remember that each and every rail timetable you read is a dull, poorly developed work of complete and utter fiction. I suggest they add the following disclaimer to the bottom of all timetables. All trains are fictitious and any resemblance to actual trains or their time of travel is purely coincidental.

"Wankers!" As Pete from Big Brother would say.

"Useless wankers!" As Pete from Big Brother would say after just spending 3 hours traveling from Sheffield to Manchester.

"Take that useless wankers!" As Pete from Big Brother would say after just spending 3 hours traveling from Sheffield to Manchester and then attacking several members of 'Central Trains' and 'Network Rail' with sticks and bottles.

"Ahhhhh get these cats away from me you slimey alien bastards!" As Pete from Big Brother would say if attacked by an alien race carrying cat launching weaponry and hell bent on defending both 'Central Trains' and Network Rail'.

Ermmm... that'll do Donkey, that'll do.

First, thanks for visiting my site. One of my best friends hails from Chesshire and he agrees with your observation. As you may know Amtrak here is a joke! The embarassing fact of the matter is that flying for those of us in the US has become a necessity bourne of nuisiance. We all know that a bullet train network that is safe and reasonably priced and dependable should be up and running; we have none.But I will say you have some damn good air carriers in the UK--large and small! Cheers!

The buses are no better - that old joke about waiting ages and then having three turn up is true!

Kim: Missed it? Sorry no, that rather puts the blame on me. The problem actually started when I caught the thing!

Michael: Hi, welcome, please have a seat. Nibble?

Kate: Don't get me started on the buses....
