Today I celebrated the Platinum Jubilee by riding the Elizabeth Line for the first time. It was more a celebration of the train than the monarch, though her name is in it I guess. So that’s done. Now I just need them to sort out the Liverpool Street and Paddington connections and it will actually become useful for those of us who live near Stratford – rather than me deliberately picking a restaurant in Paddington simply as an excuse to use the new train!
