jhb171achill Posted October 3 Posted October 3 Well, the other day when i went north, the DD was a 6-car NIR railcar. No matter, thought I; I'll be sure to get a DD back tomorrow. Sure enough - the following day the 16:00 DD was a THREE-car NIR set, with no working internet.

jhb171achill Posted October 8 Posted October 8 I'll be heading north either Friday or Monday. I always use a service which is supposed to be a DD. Of the last six times that I have got the Enterprise, four times it's been an NIR set (once just 3 cars with people standing), one has been cancelled entirely, and one has been the actual booked DD set. I wonder what's ahead of me....................!
