It's a shame that the "One" livery will soon dissapear. It definatly brings out a lot of colour. I'll have to get a few more pictures before they dissapear. Am I right in thinking that the Central Trains franchise ran out on Sunday?

Still, I think a unified Eastern Region rail network is a good thing, if it means cheaper fares and easier travelling.

When I first started to read the article, I thought it said 'their desperate staff'. Oops!

Well here we are, the last day of ONE. Tomorrow it will be National Express East Anglia. There has been hasty pasteing of stickers over the old ONE logos! Will we see improvement or is it a case of polishing poo?

We all got reams of corperate blurb and how the customer will come first as well as a leather licence holder. They are making the right noises but I think the customers don't care what colour the train is as long as they get to their destination as fast, comfortably and cheaply as possible.
