If i remember rightly the then Government wouldn't allow GNER to re-bid when its franchise came up for renewal as its parent company was in financial difficulty. The decision to give the franchise to NX was flawed, based upon NX's massively exaggerated passenger figures forecast. The Government then had to re-nationalise the East Coast Mainline. A total mess up.
Love this - great timing with the music..esp the "can you hear that sound" line!!!
Miss GNER, but having just travelled on East Coast's new First Class from Edinburgh to York it's not too shabby.... That and the new timetable...4 hours to London on the Flying Scotsman.
this video brought a tear to my eye i miss gner so much neecwas crap the east coast main line is under operation by the government i belive what i heard
this is the best ner tribute on the web many kind regards gner was the best train company ever i hope to see more tributes from you with kind regards mrjezza31
shame. i miss gner at york nrm, standing on the balcony watching them come and go. shame. i say GNER are one of the BEST companys ever. BRING THEM BACK!!!!!
My first encounter of GNER...waiting at Stonehaven for a train into Aberdeen, a GNER HST arrives heading for London...this massive train screaming out the station defening everybody! (This was before the orange doors and quieter engines so about 8/9 years ago) Miss them.
what company will i get now i used 2 go nearly every summer but havent been for last few years 2 glasgow used Gner when it was running from doncaster who will i get now might go back in the summer
thats good video m8 really miss gner am only `14 and tha was the company a wanted to work for it brought tears to my eyes a want to be a train driver in the future but a think it will be grand central coz there good company
you are bloody good at that this may sound stupid but it alomst made me cry . you have some talent you should become a director for bbc or something,really!
That was brilliant and emotional. Well done on making this video. I only used GNER once, in November 2004 from York to Peterborough on a 225, but it was still worth it.
