Have spent far too long on trains over the last couple of days. The trains really are very bad, they are late, somewhat disorganised, dirty, unpleasant and very expensive. I guess the owners are making some money but that is really very little consolation to the masses of people who just want an efficient, inexpensive public transport system. I haven’t really come up with the solution but I guess if we all ran a society that was sensible and was preoccupied with coming up with ingenious ways to help people then that would probably be better than one run on such a bizarre concept as ‘making money’.
