That's why I just don't travel by train anymore, for the places I usually travel to it's easier, faster and cheaper to just fly, or if we have time we just take the car.
Plus, if I wanted to sit on an ironing board for a few hours, I'd just do a few laps on the 26 rather than pay LNER for the 'privilege' of riding an Azuma!
I suppose the only downside would be not being able to get a PlusBus ticket to explore the area
