Heathrow Connect is one of the worst talking trains with numerous
repetitive and pointless announcements like 'CCTV is used aboard this
train.' So what? This didn't stop a hoodie attempting to knife a
member of staff a few months ago. Now we have talking buses - like the
Transdev's H98. This not only announces the next bus stop, but also
stupid requests such as don't forget to take all your belongings with
you, etc. Its almost as bad as the FGW buses stating the obvious such
as 'the doors are now opening/closing.' It makes me want to turn my
Walkman up really loud to stop hearing these inane and nanny state
announcements. CJB.
