Is an absolute disgrace!!!....

Sh*te customer "service".
Consistently late trains.
Consistently overcrowded trains.
Inflated disgraceful high fare prices.
Dirty unclean trains.
Ridiculously high 'on board' food prices/ lack of choice/lack of quality "foods" on offer.
Staff with poor attitude, lack of communication. (Conductors the worse).
Rail maintenance still gpoing on 50 years after started.
Ugly Railway staff.

Makes you ashamed to be British.

And another fact for all those "Thatcherite" privatise everything Lee, We give more in subsidises to the private rail companies now than we did when it was nationalised as British Rail as tax payers

I have a standard answer when asked about Stagecoach.

It consists of several uses of the words "ignorant" and "c*nts".

That's a little extreme, when I have a perfectly good car outside.

I used to catch the train to work and it was actually OK.

I do like the smell of **** though.

I'm guessing it's not out of the window yet then.
