Virgin Trains

When you think about it, sitting up the front on a west coast 125 Virgin Pedulino is probably far more comfortable and prestiduous than flying night freight or a low cost.

Coupled with the high technology and the number of passengers you are responsible for, maybe the rail industry is going to leave the airlines behind.

Apart from leaves on the line and the wrong kind of snow, you don't need to worry too much about minima, charlie bravos,slots,diversions,holding or indeed getting lost!

60k sounds good for a few high speed jolly's down to London and the C.V. is in the post!

You even get a better travel deal for your family. Mind you thats not hard to beat as most airlines offer less of a deal than you can get off the net.

Train driving..........Its the future!!!!
