The best thing to happen to the Chiltern Slug
« on: 03 March 2015, 08:07:01 »
A big landslide at Leamington a few weeks back. Every time I've used it for the past few weeks, I've got a seat, and it's been mostly on time.

Downside is that every mongrel queues up at ticket desk asking stupid questions about buses etc, so I miss the fast train, and am now desperately late :(


Chiltern have the most unreliable ticket machines so I was forced to queue for about 20 mins to get ticket

The only Locos they had were brand spanking new ones so still under warranty (3 years or 1 million miles lol)

Unlike the 1960 bubbles they still run  ;D

Yes, its pretty good as well (only used at peak times to Princess Risborough) plus having twin engines/gearbox/final drive, get an issue, isolate the faulty one and continue....
