COMMUTER Anita Curtis has been pleasantly surprised by the service on the railways so far this week.
Starting her new commuter diary on Monday, Anita emailed to say: “It’s looking good! Train for a Monday morning had all its carriages and the right formation too. Arrived on time and only those from Colchester struggled to find a seat.
“Fingers crossed for this evening. Will this be a good week?”
And the return leg was as successful.
“Again a full train and correct formation.
“The nice catering lady was offering “marked down” sandwiches for £1.50. Can’t see a stampede at the moment. Well, we are home on time- just as well as tummies are beginning to rumble (there’s always those sandwiches!).”
