Rugby has been in the news already this year because the over run of the rail engineering works. In the last year a new platform has been built (pictured) and engineering works take place quite often. However, as a rail traveller you are rarely aware of any changes as a result. But not this week. I pitched up for my bike-train-bike commute to London yesterday and it was all change. That’s the 08:51 to Euston coming into the picture on a completely different track. This was a northbound track at the end of 2007. There was a change on the way home too. Trains from London are are now arriving on the new platform. Progress.
