Maybe Mr Branson would like to paint them red and run them with connections
to his nice planes.  He has made a fair job of attending to customer service
in the UK rail operations which I am told he expects to be bigger than the
airline.

His new trains for UK Cross Country services have everything that the plane
does, seat back video etc.

Also the curled BR sandwich went out years ago, complementary drinks
(alcholic and non) and sandwiches / cakes served to your seat in First Class
and a decent range of sandwiches, hot snacks drinks etc. in the buffet cars
for Standard (second) Class customers.
