Riding a virgin

For £10. It's quietish, but this upgrade to first class is devoid of a hot cuppa - tea or coffee - on this Euston to Brum special.

I got 2 fingers off the guy, peddling kit Kat, who should have been making a brew. Politely smiled and begged for some hot tea.

Snack pack also includes 2 crackers (no jokes or snap) a mysterious cream cheese and a salt and oil cracker for cheese - found after scoffing the cheese. Plus a nasty pepper spread.

How the other half lives. We left at 6pm and still no hot drink!

East Coast used to do pretty good First Class. Hoping now it's Virgin it doesn't go downhill because I'm on again in a few weeks...

I'd love to ride a virgin but I've gotta feeling we're at cross purposes here!

The lamps today have a hint of art deco inspiration. Nicer than the fluorescent above.

Smiling virgin guy is bringing hot drinks now

Pendolino presumably. Nice piece of kit.

I'm so annoyed I didn't ride it when it was publicly owned and operated.

The virgins weekend first class is trimmed down from the midweek ride. Morning pastries, fruit and drinks earlier in the day. Later inclusive stuff is the snack box, hot and cold drinks, as I itemized above. I think I had sandwiches last trip.

For a longer trip then just a couple of hot drinks at their price almost pays for itself. Bigger seats, quieter, it's an ok deal.

I'll be in Brum in a few mins, hardly time for tea. Pendolino I think it is.

Anybody needing a used virgin ride onboard, my tired legs are now re-energized in the quieter coach. Or haul me off in the west midlands.

A number of eager guys serviced me on board and I managed 2 teas, but time - almost - to get off. Ticket man, tea man and bin man - I thank you all.
