Gratuitous Railway Eye candy
Look. There's a train in it okay!
UPDATE: This from a Mr Tony Miles...
Now we know what Captain Deltic's dreams are like...
UPDATE: This from Scotch Corner...
I wonder if the Virgin PR luvvies are thinking it might make more sense to go down this route rather than the bizarre Zombie campaign currently favoured.
Would certainly generate a lot more interest...
Mediaballs - City AM and the Virgin non-story
This from City AM...
VIRGIN Trains has denied suggestions it may launch rival services against Eurostar on the new high-speed line from London to continental Europe.
And in further un-news Virgin also denied that the moon is made of cheese and that the world is flat.
Eye salutes City AM for a complete non-story.

For Go-Ahead the future is... less orange!
This from Go-Ahead...
The Board of Go-Ahead Group plc (‘Go-Ahead’ or the ‘Company’) today announces that Keith Ludeman has decided to retire as Group Chief Executive of Go-Ahead after 15 years with the Company. He will retire on 4 July 2011 when he will be succeeded by David Brown.
As part of the orderly succession plan, David Brown, currently Managing Director, Surface Transport of Transport for London, will join the Company as Deputy Chief Executive on 1 April 2011 and will succeed Keith Ludeman when he retires.
So Tim O'Toole departed for First Group, then Ian Brown announces his retirement and now David Brown announces he is going to Go-Ahead.
Clearly retention of TfL Managing Directors is proving a challenge for Boris.
