I should hope so too! Good of ATW to stand in like that, have to say. There is co-ordination between TOCs after all.

(Shame it wasn't a 150/2 all the way though, that would have been funny.)

The 150/2 would have been more comfy than the bloody 390! :twisted: :lol:

I was very impressed that ATW stood in like that! Very impressive! I was in First on the Pendo so I would not have appreciated having the 150 to Euston!!
