From all reports it turned out to be a very popular service and one that provided an important link between Shropshire, mid Wales and north Wales.
We have lots of lectured on being "green" and that service got people out of their cars and made London much closer. It is unbelievable that towns the size of Shrewsbury, Wrexham and Telford no longer have a direct rail link to the capital. Virgin rail gave up on Shresbury long ago and have even cut the London Wolverhampton service down to one an hour.
This is bad for the people in Shropshire and mid Wales, bad for the railways and certainly very bad for business.
