Title: Polite Passengers? Post by: johoare on October 05, 2010, 22:26:24 I'd not really noticed other people's behaviour so much before when I've commuted on my own but I now get a slightly earlier train and quite often travel with a friend...
When the train arrives at Maidenhead in the morning, and we are standing next to each other, near the door of the train as it stops, I am always totally amazed at the amount of people who manage to get in between us as we're boarding.. I think the maximum so far has been six and the minimum is 1... 1 is a good day.. I just wonder how they do it.. ::) ??? ;D Title: Re: Polite Passengers?

Hmm, do FGW give out written permission to carry cattle prods? ::) ;)This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
