A pleasant trip down to Huntingdon via Peterborough with no mishaps. But what a surprise when, just before arriving at Peterborough, a tannoy announcement invited standard class passengers to come down to the buffet car where a very small selection of the first class food offer was available on a complimentary basis. It sounded too good to be true, but there was no catch. Full marks to Virgin Trains who have obviously decided that rather than through away good food at the end of the journey, it was a chance to tempt standard class passengers to upgrade to first on their next trip.
