Silverlink Trains

So how would you run the service? I hear all the comments that have been put in his section and these are taken on board. Just to throw it all open to discussion though, without me putting in the technical details, how would you deliver a train service to your passengers? Please do not think that this is a pointless exercise. Some of the best ideas are simple ones put into context. Let me start you off.

Silverlink Metro does not appear to provide its customers with the facility to contact them on-line directly so I have today sent the following e-mail to Silverlink Metro via the National Express website: Dear Sir, I use Silverlink Metro 3 times a week from Dalston station and have been doing so since May of last year.

Silverlink run what was known as the "North London Link" under BR. This service is a semi-circle line from North Woolwich (east London) to Richmond (West london) via Stratford, Hackney and Camden. I cant comment on other Silverlink services, but I hope they are a bit better than this one. This is a useful service as its the main rail service that goes into Hackney, and all around north London.
