00:00I'm autistic so I love trains that's just in my DNA and I think they're

00:05amazing and I think in the UK sometimes they can be unclean sometimes they can

00:10be slow but I think with the ones that have been renationalised like LNER

00:14they can be really clean really punctual so I think for me the direction that the

00:22government's going in around renationalisation of them is really exciting.

00:25I come over early in the morning and it's rare that it gets cancelled.

00:29Occasionally delays, sometimes tea time going back it's very very busy so maybe

00:38extra carriages. It makes me smile thinking about HS2 and the amount of

00:45money they were going to spend on that and I think it just needs slight tweaks

00:49and we've got quite a decent service. It's important not just to listen to the

00:54negative stuff that we hear particularly on social media if someone's frustrated

00:58that their trains missed or what have you.
