Indeed, why don't we all do that, because with no passengers the government will be able to shut down the railways and you can get a job as a bus driver. Of course if that happens you'll find out what real whinging is like... Title: Re: 'Economy Klaus' blog Post by: Lee on January 30, 2008, 08:12:24 Latest Economy Klaus post (link below.)

I wonder when there'll be a sex discrimination case lodged against FGW as it prevents males from obtaining an upgrade ? ;) Title: Re: 'Economy Klaus' blog Post by: zebedee on January 30, 2008, 10:28:48 I was in a desperate need of a laugh - and that gave it to me! I can picture it now.... ;D
Title: Re: 'Economy Klaus' blog Post by: devon_metro on January 30, 2008, 16:29:53 Brilliant :D

http://firstlatewestern.blogspot.com/2008/04/trespassing-on-my-time.html Quote from: Economy Klaus Moments after the train manager^s announcement has concluded and the passengers have digested the news and made their first round of calls home ^Hi luv^just outside Paddington^trespassers on the line^yeah, tell me about it!^ an HST thunders past on the neighbouring line 10-20 yards away. Immediately you can see the question forming in everyone^s mind: how come we^re stuck here, yet the trains next door are still going at full speed? Title: Economy Klaus Post by: dog box on October 13, 2008, 18:41:56 His somewhat comical site hasnt been up dated for over a month .....has he finally run out of things to say????
Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Btline on October 13, 2008, 18:42:57 Is he on this forum?
Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Lee on October 13, 2008, 23:04:33 Like him or loathe him, he was always entertaining.
Of all the FGW-related blogs we have been monitoring, only 3 have been active in the last month : I Work For FGW - run by Ollie, a member of this forum. http://www.iworkforfgw.com/blog/ Third Rate Western - run by miniman, also a member of this forum. http://thirdratewestern.blogspot.com/ Train Fellows. http://trainfellows.blogspot.com/ Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Tim on October 14, 2008, 15:29:48 Of all the FGW-related blogs we have been monitoring, only 3 have been active in the last month : This is as good as any measure that things are better now than there were a couple of years ago. Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Btline on April 21, 2009, 22:22:55 What has happened to Economy Klaus? ??? His blog was entertaining, even if you didn't agree with it's POV.
Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: devon_metro on April 22, 2009, 17:40:03 Perhaps hes not been having a bad journey ???
Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: miniman on April 22, 2009, 21:29:44 Of all the FGW-related blogs we have been monitoring, only 3 have been active in the last month : This is as good as any measure that things are better now than there were a couple of years ago. Indeed; although I now commute by car, I do still do one or two trips a week to Paddington and to be fair to FGW I can't remember the last time I had a problem. Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Timmer on April 22, 2009, 21:48:17 EK hasn't posted since August of last year so we can either guess all is well on his travels, he's moved to pastures new or he can't be bothered to write his blog anymore.
Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Chris from Nailsea on April 22, 2009, 21:54:18 What has happened to Economy Klaus? ??? You could always try asking him, by e-mail: noreply@blogger.com ;) :D ;D Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: thetrout on April 22, 2009, 23:30:58 I must admit, It took me a fair few seconds to work that out... ::) Well Done Chris ;D
Title: Re: Economy Klaus Post by: Chris from Nailsea on April 22, 2009, 23:38:41 Hmm. Slightly ironically, on this occasion I wasn't actually joking. :o
