INSIDE TRACK


We spend our lives dealing with demanding customers, but rarely is an audience harder to please than when they expect to be travelling by train but find themselves aboard a replacement bus. The reaction of many, when confronted with bus replacement for part of their journey, ranges from shock to outright anger.
