Advantages: quick and reliable

Disadvantages: hmmmmmm

I travel to London on the virgin train service pretty much every weekend and from my experience they have always been reliable and conducive of a good journey. I don't think that i have ever actually been delayed ever, so their record for me is excellent.

The trains that are used are all of the exact same quality and standard. That is ti say that they all have clean functioning toilets, ample leg space, over head storage compartments, tables every four rows, a trolley person that brings refreshments and a fairly pleasant atmosphere. The trains are always cleaned prior to passengers getting on as well. Which really does help to maintain a nice feel to the whole train experience.

If you are looking for cheap fares from London to Manchester for example then visit the virgin trains special offers section they offer some really great deals if you book in advance and you can even get a return from Lonon to Manchester for as little as 6 pounds. That is however a little unpredictable. If you use a railcard as well then fares get cheaper and cheaper. They also offer a fast ticket collection that you can do from one of the terminals in the station this saves time and means you can fly through the crowds.

I would say that the virgin trians service was extremely pleasant and enjoyable to use. It is certainly one of the best that i have ever been on. Thumbs up.

Summary: Good service, excellent trains and customer service.
