We very rarely get to hear about the good work and great people in this industry so, thank you Gemma and @birdsnestsblog
Letās talk about good people. I literally wanted to shout about @tfwrail conductor Gemma today. Between Prestatyn-Shotton she helped a family who got on the wrong train, sorted the best ticket & made sure they were all sorted. Told her she was fabulous.
