For the second time this week, a packed f***ing Crapital Connect train (i.e. the ones that were Thameslink) has had to discharge its full cargo of passengers at Brighton station before even setting off, because of a "mechanical fault on the train that can't be rectified".
Needless to say, this means that 20-30 poor sods per carriage have been about £25 quid to stand for an hour and half in non-air conditioned trains that get even fuller at every stop up the line.
Now, If I'm driving to Germany or to France, I quickly check my oil, tyres and water on my car and take it for a quick spin the night before to make sure that everything seems OK. And I don't have 200 people on board paying a fortune to try and get to work on time. Why the fucks are these IDIOTS incapable of trying out their knackered trains first thing, rather than find out they don't work once it's too late?
