I hate Reading! Although that's more due to the inevitable delays. Grrrrr! Reading! Booooo!

Blimey. 7 out of 10 of those are in the North West. Never let us hear you southerners complaining about your stations again, OK?

Yes, Clapham junction is more delapidated, but I've not had issues with all the trains seemingly never managing to negotiate it. Reading's a bit old and tatty, but not too bad. It's just after 4hrs of sitting and waitng you get fed up. And I wish it were one-off occurrences, but I go through there nearly every week at the moment, and it's never good.

Perhaps because your stations aren't quite so sh!t? It is rather like complaining you're the only one not being given antibiotics for a rather nasty socially-acquired rash.
