Sardines protest
Sir Richard Branson has been sent sardines by a rail passenger group upset by cuts to Virgin Trains services.
Warrington-based campaign group TrainSardine.org is angry that some direct West Coast Main Line rush-hour trains to London from the Cheshire town have been reduced by 50%.
The change follows the introduction of a new timetable after the completion of the 9bn West Coast Main Line upgrade.
A spokesman said: "Billions spent for a reduced service – great."
