That's a great article and makes a very good point - I agree that the list of stressful factors doesn't start and end with punctuality.

I'd also add ones like:

• Will they send a two, three or four carriage train for the hundreds of people on this platform?
• Will we all fit on?
• If we fit, will it be cramped, standing room only and dangerously overheated?
• Will it have openable windows or air conditioning, both or neither?
• Will the over-filled, 40°C interior train be stuck at a signal in the boiling sun for 40 minutes, whilst they let "more important" trains go past?
• Will I dehydrate, suffocate, have a panic attack or die?

Surrey Canal Road, next to Millwall Stadium. Hopefully it should help the away fans make a quick getaway on match days

Travellers paying with a Chase debit card will get 1% cashback on their fares (up to £180 a year)

Switching which devil sponsors the barrier tap-to-pay pad covers. Nothing to see here except a little more TfL funding?

Not quite transport but I suspect some of us use car hire to fill in the gaps.

Free at the point of use. Like freeways but transport. Still has to be paid for somehow, but is called free. More accessible than some transport projects, so it seems like a good move.

Is it free, or is it an investment of taxes collected by citizens?

You're the hero we need

Glasgow. And screw Time Out for not saying so in the headline.

At £33 million, it's an eye-wateringly expensive development, and there's certainly an argument that it's not really £33 million's worth of benefit. But it is really very nice, and it's nice to see investment in public transport infrastructure.

Ah perfect, enough to give Reform 3 years to cancel it when they get into power in the next election.

For fucks sake!

If you're booking further ahead of time you can get it down to £40 on certain days

I priced it out of curiosity:
One way direct from LHR to Edinburgh was about £50, with an extra £40 for a second seat, and £4 for the best seats at the front.
Honestly, I'd pay an extra £4 for a good seat on a 10 hour drive.

Obviously only £50 if you are willing to gamble on your seatmate not smelling of cheese or something.

For comparison, a flight from LHR to EDI on BA is about £120 on the same day, and takes 90 mins.

The great British project!
