Only ever been mid-week so makes sense. It was normally 330ml bottles or cans of lager/ale, and not been for some time so things could have changed.we went 1 st class for the carabao last year march 2020, ( sunday ) it was cheaper when i booked it on line than 2nd class ( work that one out )
we got no alcohol,just soft drinks and a few sanwiches free,its during the week when you get all that ( free booze ),thats what happened to us anyway,that was the first time in my life iv gone 1 st class,can only say what we experienced
Vic - I meant the railway station not the tube one, I got the names mixed up.
Yes obviously changed a lot since I did my BR stint in the 80s. Back then the micro switches on the door buttons would get really dirty and stick closed, so when the guard unlocked the doors at the station, the doors with a dirty switch would fly open, and anyone leaning on them would end up on the platform or track if the train was too long. I guess the new system you've described is progress.
Would shorter trains get round the problem ?
Oh hell, City->Logic->Road-to-nowhere somethings never change.
It was always thusOnly ever been mid-week so makes sense. It was normally 330ml bottles or cans of lager/ale, and not been for some time so things could have changed.
Similar issue for me, the test centres within easy reach close at 3-45pm on Saturday, I haven't seen any official clarification of whether "within 24 hours" is to be taken literally or would a test earlier on Saturday be ok?
Will going eclipse York away?
Supporter services told me today the only difference is you sit in a first class carriage there are no extrasYou normally get at least 2 bottles/cans of beer, often 3 in first class and well as the food on that journey.
It isn't really first class if they don't have food or drink on offer, they really need to clarify what you get. Most people in 1st will only be there as they have no choice if they want a match ticket, as there won't be any benefit on a half full train if there is no food/drink offer.
A bit rubbish considering everyone gets 2 seats anyway - the £50 extra is a total piss-take, bring your own cloth for a head rest and save the money :)Supporter services told me today the only difference is you sit in a first class carriage there are no extras
