Funny But True

One day, Mark Hopwood, we will look back on all this, and laugh! Today is not that day!

@FGW I'll give you a clue. It's hot, overcrowded, late, slow and costs more per mile than Concorde.

The scene on the hottest @FGW coach ever as the last passenger crawls for some air and water. pic.twitter.com/5LMcmbt2kD

"A very warm welcome to passengers on this @fgw service to…" your not wrong.. AC very weak.

Yo @FGW, just in case someone hasn't told you for about 10 minutes, you're a disgrace

The good news is that @FGW 's free wifi is really simple to connect to. The bad news is that it won't connect me to a single web page.

Q: What runs slower than a First Great Western train? A: Their on board wifi.

Vicar on @FGW train: 'I am off to find a socket that works'. It'll take more than the Lord's power to sort. They never work

@fgwkmc @FGW Wi-Fi is so slow I can't even send a whole twee…..

— David Mutch (@animalmutch) July 23, 2015

Sometimes, I get so infuriated by tweets, I sign into the @FGW onboard WiFi so I can't see them anymore

— Barry (@elfsocks) July 24, 2015

Amazing scenes on @FGW train to Penzance. From conductor on overcrowding: "This doesn't normally happen." Akin to apologising for poor sex.

— Dave Ross-Tomlin (@LairdDRT) July 24, 2015

Can anybody definitively state (other than 'Abracadabra') what's needed to connect to @FGW wifi? Connects, no internet access. Ever.

How many First Great Western staff does it take to change a lightbulb? Cc @fgwkmc https://t.co/XUqwkpMrlf

For all people who use @FGW trains, I have improved the seat design for you… pic.twitter.com/nkR3R2NT42

Spoke too soon. Trains now delayed 'due to congestion' how poetic @fgw. It's obviously a surprise how many trains decided to travel today.

— Adland's hillbilly (@Adhillbilly) July 29, 2015

@FGW are so reliable. First FGW train is late so you'd miss your connection, but the connection is FGW so that's late too=no missed train…

Epic @fgw sarcasm is lost here…. pic.twitter.com/qiWg6DC6R9

My apologies for the delays at Portsmouth Harbour today. This tweet has been delayed by the late arrival of an incoming tweet.

I think I might have developed the ability to teleport before @fgw improve their communication skills.

Suggested slogan for First Great Western: "If you think the price is shocking just wait until you see the service!".

— Ali Robertson (@ARobertson1972) August 7, 2015

: Hey @FGW — got an idea for you and @networkrail — let me know how it works out… pic.twitter.com/97r88I7c5f

@fgwkmc slogan. "We're sorry. In every sense of the phrase."

— Alistair Munro (@b1ackcr0w) August 7, 2015

What on earth? A @FGW train shortly before rush hour that isn't overcrowded by 20 million more people than capacity? What's the occasion?

— Simon James Chisholm (@similtiades) August 8, 2015

@fgw nothing says sorry quite like a recorded voice.

— Admiral Stinkbottom (@iamdavidking) August 13, 2015

@fgwkmc @LadyFletch_Hall always love the anticipation when you see a man wearing FGW overalls holding a hammer getting on the train.

— DC (@Baroness_DC) August 17, 2015

@FGW great. I'll set my alarm for 5am tomorrow so I have a chance of making it to work for 9.

— Helen Noble (@helen100) August 17, 2015

@CommutingRants @FGW no seats elsewhere. I managed to channel all my energy on humming the theme tune to Countdown as loud as possible

— Rob Simms (@robertsimms) August 18, 2015

I think @FGW should precede all of their timetable times with "roughly" to manage expectations

— james abraham (@_jamesabraham) August 22, 2015

Carlsberg don't do shit train journeys but if they did they still wouldn't be as shit as this one #FGW

@FGW My on time arrivals home on Friday nights must be about 50% for the last yr. Does some key signal maintenance person not work fridays?

— Tabitha Brady (@tabithabrady) August 28, 2015

That time I rode on a camel was infinitely more comfortable than every time I've travelled with @FGW
