[Catherine Tackley @CTackley]

@TPExpressTrains No, there is no catering at all. The guard confirms this. And two toilets are blocked. Not great.

[Catherine Tackley @CTackley]

[Catherine Tackley @CTackley]

@TPExpressTrains Actually it was a real shame that no one organised any catering or thought to inform us that there wouldn't be any!

[Catherine Tackley @CTackley]

@TPExpressTrains Thanks for your responses anyway
