The pictures here bear testimony to the galloping success of our foward thinking visionaries who saw part privatisation as the way foward to a cleaner stronger and prettier UK , with facilities that would make any citizen proud.
Since our stations look much the same as our EU brethren's in Poland, I wonder if the rail companies would accept payment in Zlotys for travel cards

I had the misfortune have having to undertake a train journey from East Poland to Warsaw yesterday and I think I have seen better transport systems in Central Africa. The taxis outside Warsaw are definately in need of a bit of MOT as well
WTF are they doing with all this money the EU is giving them? I was not expecting Western European standards but it was like the set of a WW2 movie.

Cheaper
Indeed you get what you pay for.
40 pzl / ticket for a journey about the same as London to Bristol. (about £7,50).
Just dont use the toilets at the station, there are still pieces of cr@p in there from when the Germans invaded.

I reckon that this is a big mistake that Poland is doing. Concentrating all the economics development on the main towns (Crackow, Warsaw) and neglecting the rest of the country. In other eastern european states, they are trying to spread the development around the whole country with greater benefits in the longer run (in my opinion).
