(09 Sep 2014, 6:42 am)Dan Have to say I wasn't impressed with East Coast yesterday.
Although the train I was on south-bound was punctual, the 0630 from Newcastle was not. As a result of the service's cancellation, passengers on that train crammed onto ours and we made an additional calling point at Peterborough consequently. When you're still half asleep, it's just not great...
Coach C on the return journey was awful - the smell was worse than that of a 'CrossStinky' train. The lock on the toilet at the end of our carriage was broken; as such, the door was left open (despite me getting up several times in anger to close it - thinking this was the source of the smell). The door leading into the carriage from the vestibule was also broken, and remained open throughout the journey.
