    The rail industry in the UK in currently in a terrible state. It's being run for the convenience of the staff and operating companies, despite the millions of public subsidies it receives.

    I’m sure shop workers and cafe workers would like to not work Sundays too, bet guards and train drivers shop and eat out at weekends

      Really! do cafe workers like to get up at all hours and go to bed at all hours. And irregular meal times, before making comments about Sundays do please make sure you know your facts regarding Sunday working and not get your info from sensational statements from the media.

    Taking money from farmers working 7 days weeks to give it to rail workers that don't want to work much at all.

    Check out the GWR trains that run from Reading to Gatwick. There are always cancellations even during normal working days

    It used to be possible to install new bridges without closing the railway lines - the old engineers were very ingenious.
    Now, not so much.

    It’s a no win situation for the railways, ppl complain about no maintenance then when they do some ppl still moan. You should be thankful you don’t live in Germany they just shut whole lines for months at a time for there maintenance.

      They actually do that, worked in the industry. They do it if they have stock shortages or services that can't stick to timetable, they also use it to manipulate targets on punctuality
