Inter City Trains ... a consortium (coalition !) of Virgin / Stagecoach - has just won the franchise.
It's a Virgin/Stagecoach consortium that runs West Coast, (but a 50/50 split not 10/90 as East Coast will be). The new trains for the East Coast were ordered a couple of years ago, (so whoever had won were going to get new trains eventually). I just can't understand why they don't order more 11-coach Pendolinos for the East Coast. They really are the best trains on the network.

It is a lovely journey. I like when the train goes past the houses and you get a tiny glimpse into people's houses and lives.
Whereabouts did you go? Presumably Jamaica street? Anywhere else?

When Virgin took them over, the label started making money. The Sex Pistols got loads of press but punk never really made big money for years, especially not in America.

eh ?
Genesis were not even on Virgin - they were on Charisma, surely ?
