Brenda: I had a go on that new 10A service to Liverpool. It's nice enough having a plug for your phone, but the announcements are so loud you'd think the driver was shouting through a megaphone, and it was running late before it'd even started.

The facts above come from the linked report. Brenda's commentary is satire and opinion.
