h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Its a pity that the rolling stock is so outdated- is this because there is a limited railway service in N.I.

I have taken the train from Portadown to L'Derry and can say that one journey was enough.

NIR maybe nothing compared with train companies in England but UlsterBus is by far the Best Bus Company in the UK.

well this is going from experience. I once used Ulsterbus when going to school, the only bad things were the journey times and fares really, although the buses are now getting quite new.

Can you believe those idiots at Translink are trying to actively encourage us poor innocents unto their incresingly antique rolling stock. I used to live in London and at times in the last eight years have seen replacement engines coming over which have obviously been deemed to dangerous to travel in London come across. NIR is another Paddington waiting to happen.
