I must, hand on heart, prior to my retirement, admit to have been a senior member of the top management at our consultancy who travelled first-class on railway lines where this was afforded.We also had an account with a company that offered the use of chauffeur-driven limousine fleet cars to areas that had no rail service.

I remember once travelling on a first advance (with my director) on the wrong train, on GNER as it then was. Thankfully we weren't questioned.

I like the idea of a class below standard. Personally, I would make one coach on EC leeds-london 2+3 seating from a pacer and put all the £13 advance people there, leaving the 2+2 standard class seats for those of us with flexible tickets.

I would quite like to travel in "shipping container class" on an intercity journey, were there a suitable discount for doing so.
