Virgin has been getting a battering recently, but in general is has been OK on the West Coast Route from Coventry to London. Recently it's suffered due to Railtrack's repair programme (why didn't they repair the tracks before? But that's another question...) and so it's only running half the trains it should be and taking most of the day to get places (last weekend it took me 2 1/2 hours to get from Coventry to London, 2 hours to get back. It used to take 1h15). I think we ought to leave the big judgement until they bring in their new trains in one or two(?) years time - this is when we'll see if they can run a train service with modern trains, instead of making excuses about the old ones.
