C2C v FGE(One)

[Guest]

After four years of getting the 06:44 from Rochford to Liverpool St. I have moved to Benfleet and now travel on the C2C line. Which is best?

Here are my purely subjective views.....


C2C

Pros

Cheaper.
Air conditioning.
Better seats.
Shorter journey.
Designated area for bicycles.

Cons

Occasional annoying Leigh 'haircut' types.
Standing room only on quick trains from Benfleet.
Potential high pike and chav ratio due to stops in Basildon,Laindon...
Generally less reliable.
Less frequent trains.
Parking an absolute rip off.

One (FGE)

Pros

Generally higher class of person.
More reliable.
More frequent.

Cons

Always get a seat.
No air conditioning.
Poor seats.
More expensive.
