It all started as harmless fun.

The reservation system on the 12:52 East Midlands train from Liverpool to Norwich was broken, so many of the passengers were forced to share a carriage as a group of lads complaining of being out of coke, got drunker.

They passed their time surrounding a group of girls who at first appeared to be egging them on as they talked dirty & told them what they would like to do with them. It may have been more out of nervous self defence.

The whole carriage got to hear their obscenities, watch as they stripped & danced on the tables and sit in the cloud of cigarette smoke now filling the carriage. Even little Lucy wasn't spared the hours of chaos. Not even 2 years old, exhausted & needing sleep she looked on as things got worse and worse.

Shortly after the nudity started the whole train got to enjoy the fun when the 'party' spilled out onto the track & delayed the train at Sheffield.

Complaints to the staff fell on deaf ears. The guy manning the snack trolley was too scared to pass through the carriage.

After the group had got off at Alfreton one of the girls stated that she worked in a prison for sex offenders and she dealt with people who were doing time for doing less.

I paid £72.20 for this journey.

On the train to Liverpool. No plug sockets on this train but in the window is the surprisingly versatile PowerFilm USB + AA solar charger from @Select_Solar (www.selectsolar.co.uk)
When it's not hanging in the window of a train it's normally hanging off the front of my bike (@Bikeumentally). Handy for charging all my mobile devices.
