[Silver Fox Phil]

Back in the late 60s and early70s I was in the Royal Engineers (Longmoor) and travelled many a time up to London having to stand and often from King Cross to Peterborough (where I moved to from Lincoln.) mind you in them days there was a buffet car with a bar and standing there drinking McEwans all the way was not such a bad thing? Naturally most of the train was smoking including the bar and only a half carriage was given over to non-smokers! Totally different to now.
Cheers
