I think my point is that the poor person catching that train - assuming a regular - was *only* catching it because they *had* to - presumably unable to alter their start time - coz you would, wouldn't you if you could.

So they are entitled to a massive amount of notice I feel, rather than the normal few weeks. Like a year or thereabouts, in order that a property move to somewhere more suitable (Liskeard?) with continued links might be easily organised.
