Yes it had a higher average age and the regulars liked their fixed seats but they'd offer drinks and snacks too. Coach 2 had a younger average but also had its regulars some of whom could be seen in the same seats for each trip. Coach 2 was decent when i used it regularly back in the mid to late 90s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One memory I do have though which ties in with Saturday`s match is travelling to Blackpool on it two days after I`d had an, ahem, `minor operation` and that was bloody uncomfortable. Coach seats weren`t as comfy back then I can tell you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For just over half that price, really, I can travel First Class from Paris to Cologne (return) on the Thalys ( a high speed train, similar to Eurostar), with a really comfortable seat accompanied by a three course meal and a (small) bottle of wine.

But why would you want to do that Phil when, and to my astonishment when en route to Fleetwood, you may take a train from Preston to Blackpool where on the departing platform you'll witness an Eastern European gent catch (and decapitate) with bare hand a pigeon in full flight? Once onboard to witness a 'hen' of women in their 30s bursting out of tight yet scanty outfits whilst consuming over the briefest journey approximately the same volume of alcohol for which you'd need to undertake 300 journeys to Cologne; simultaneously encouraging a 'muscle' of male strippers to display the wares for which the 'hens' had signally already booked later that weekend. "Show us your Cologne Cathedral," doesn't have the same ring as "Show us your Blackpool Towers." Despite sun not yet over yardarm you may witness the Atlas wanabees doing as requested and rings of which Prince Albert would have been proud, polished. European travel sounds far too civilised in comparison. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you put it like that, the Kölner Dom is still dirty and, as you say, a simple 'ein Bier bitte' or even 'ein Weissbier bitte, ohne Zitrone' just doesn't have the same ring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
