The main reason nobody uses laptops on First "Great" Western trains is that they have yet to manage to provide power points, something even Virgin have had for years. I pick GNER over air travel because of the wifi. I can work on the train as if I am at home. It's about time some of the other railway companies got with the 21st century instead of running 30 year old trains with 30 year old facilities.
