I find it hard to believe that I used the word 'hellish' on the phone to the reporter. It is not a word I can ever recall using and I might reserve it for slightly worse situations than an overcrowded train.

However, all publicity is good publicity and another 100 people have signed [url= http://nototraincuts.notlong.com]the petition[/url] today, taking us over 600. If you haven't signed yet please consider it, and help us get as many votes as possible before the council meeting on Thursday evening.

If you have signed already please ask other members of your family and your friends who use peak, off-peak, evening, and weekend services to help us fight these cuts. It is only with your support that we have any chance of getting the railway authorities to change their plans.
