Well that answers those Coventry whiners who are complaining about not
being able to get to Milton Keynes. I believe the current train in

Cov 0737
MKC 0812

There's a perfectly good connection in this timetable to replace it:

Cov 0727
Nhn 0803

Nhn 0809
MKC 0825

No good for anyone working from 8:30am, and leaves earlier as well.
Also, I can't see that 6-minute connection being reliable.

Also no good, as I recall, for anyone coming from Brum itself who will
have to change twice.

Makes you wonder why they don't make it a through train with a
six-minute pause at Northampton really...

Quite.

thing is this major TT change was going to happen sooner or later suppose we
all better get used to it and of course the extortionate fares we have to
pay to use these services
