Are we ever likely to see new trains with shops/buffet counters being built?
Will there ever be the days again where you can walk away from your seat and go and sit in a cafe/bar area to enjoy some refreshments?
What are the chances of meals appearing on XC long distance routes under a different operator (when does XC franchise end - apart from not soon enough)?
Will we lose meals on GW next? :roll:
I know that operators look at carriages and see how many passenger seats they can squash in, but passenger satisfaction / added value wouldn't go a miss!
I like it in Germany on the ICE train where you can wander from your seat to the Bistro, enjoy a decent meal at a reasonable-ish price and then head back. Pity DB don't bring this concept to the UK.........
