@cstross @SteveJonesnono1 @quixoticgeek The only part of the British rail network that I'd agree is better than the Bahn is TfL. Maybe ScotRail, if they're as good as they were 10 years ago.

@pkraus @cstross @SteveJonesnono1 @quixoticgeek I wouldn't call either the rolling stock or timetable used on the more rural lines of ScotRail good, though... rather worn clunky Sprinter DMUs, big gaps in the timetable. @tml @pkraus @cstross @SteveJonesnono1 that's the sort of timetable SNCF would be proud of. Should be every 15 minutes. |
@pkraus @cstross @SteveJonesnono1 @quixoticgeek Scotrail is now run by the Scottish Government, having taken the franchise over from Abellio. Does it still count as privatised if it's owned by another country's government? 🙂
