Imagine sweeping through green fields, floating five feet above ground, sun on your face as you slide by on track to your destination, not a car in the world, as you simply lean back.

And before you know it, you're there.

This is how travel should feel, and on our trains, it does.

Avanti West Coast, feel good travel.

Hey Andy, alright. Have we started already?

Well you might as well have you got a black t-shirt on black headphones all a bit somber really?

Well I'm still in morning, obviously.

Really?

You can't tell me when to stop and when to start, when it comes to the morning.

Well I'm a good old man.

I am, but we'll try and plow on and do our best.

I always like that joke, you know, way bump into someone at the graveyard and say morning, then they say something like no I'm just walking through at the shops.

That kind of thing.

That is, yeah, very good.

What have you been up to Andy?

I just lifted the dog up earlier on.

How high?

I have a special drawer that I keep his treats in, which I refer to as the drawer.

So if I say it and you want something out of the drawer, he starts to go a bit nuts.

So I thought, he's very small, he's saying.

So I thought what I'd do is I'd lift him up and let him have a look inside the drawer.

So he could get a visualization of it.
