Title: Is it a bird.... is it a train...... no its a vibrator..... Post by: Mookiemoo on February 04, 2008, 17:24:55 I dont where the relic that is carriage F on the 1721 tonight came from - but dare I suggest it go back!
I have never sat on something that vibrates as much as this carrriage does (other than the washing machine on spin cycle) - making be nauseous just trying to focus on the screen Makes a voyager look serene Title: Re: Is it a bird.... is it a train...... no its a vibrator.....

Post by: IanL on February 05, 2008, 08:38:14 Its not just old relics, some of the newly refurbished carriages are just as bad, last night coach D (sorry mookiemoo I only travel in standard class) had ventilation fans that when the train was stationary drowned all voices and announcements with a low pitch throb-throb-throb and also had a severe flat spot on at least one wheel as we pulled away from Oxford I was shaken up and down by the thud-thud-thud. That will teach me to sit in a seat at the end of a carriage above the bogie.
