Happy Valentines it may be ๐Ÿ˜

221114, I choo-choose you for what is currently the longest journey with CrossCountry.

1V60 08:20 Aberdeen - Penzance 21:31.

Only another 7 1/2 hrs to go.

Itโ€™s no three nations connect, but it does itโ€™s job via the North East, Midlands and South West!

If you're a good problem-solver, great with people and you like the sound of a job where no two days are ever the same (or you just fancy working in the same room as me) then this may be the perfect job for you!

The dynamic changed a bit from the old MK3 days I suppose. Now with MK4s and more services I guess something had to give. Many an evening would you get on the old 17:16 from Cardiff and it be full with patrons partaking the full works having just only paid the upgrade with their 3 course meal incl.

Actually having said that, it was bigger in mind but then the photo from 2019 would suggest otherwise.

This was the breakfast on offer late last year! Was very nice but the breakfast on the old MK3s seemed to be rather bigger in my mind.

The train announcer just said we should keep our personal belongings with us at all times but I've left most of mine at home.

You always seem to be an early bird! Do you work permanent earlies or do you work lates too?

Oh right.. thanks for clearing that one up, I did wonder what the method of working was.

Is that booked to stop anywhere over than Nuneaton as I doubt itโ€™ll fit?

Believe this working is what would otherwise be a direct ECS BHM - Central Rivers, so after Leicester it goes to the Rivers but this should be a working to support the Christmas markets and the gap in the timetable.

Oh it sounds tempting.. but how do you then keep yourself awake to watch the film if you get all cosy and settled in with a bottle of wine haha?

Welcome to Birmingham, paradise of the midlands some would say. Delays = on time and so on ๐Ÿซก.

Hope you got where you needed too eventually.
