And as someone who is old enough to have travelled on BR trains, was it bad at all?
BR was patchy, which is pretty much the case today.
BR also suffered from chronic underinvestment; not all of the private operators have been able to say that post '97. Some of them have done very nicely and not been averse to handing back the keys when the going got tough.
