Trinitarian truth

Regular readers of Railway Eye will recollect that the industry is divided over the correct term of abuse to apply to the InterCity Express Programme.

The Fact Compiler prefers The Frankenstein Train.

Nigel Harris of Rail favours the Camel Class.

A late entrant to the fray is Captain Deltic, who in the latest Modern Railways describes the HST replacement as the Zombie Train.

Whilst the industry may disagree on the best term to describe this appalling civil service procurement exercise we are unanimous in our contempt for it.
