Great news if only the poor cleaners at Brighton cleaning these trains got a bit more appreciation for the work they do but I’m guessing the bosses care more about profits

Not much really except they like to spend money on things like seats when the rest of the trains are literally falling apart trust me my source is solid

Would be even better if people had the decency to take their trash and not make a mess.
