I have noticed on this and other boards a constant stream of criticism of the Enterprise - much of it warrented. What I cannot understand with many of the contributors to the board is the automatic assumption that potential or existing Enterprise customers (or indeed those on any other line) will want to drive rather than take the train - due to the latter becoming slower or unreliable. You are all entirely missing the point of the train per-se; For One, the train, regardless of it's faults, does not have to contend with "real" traffic congestion (bar a few minutes sitting outside Connolly or Great Victoria St) and two, the train eliminates the sheer unrelenting stress of driving (as we know it these days)

For these reasons alone, the Enterprise (and others) will never be at an end - Quite simply, a sizable minority of travellers out there do not want to drive unless absolutely neccessary - myself among them

Now put that in your pipes
