Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3F12E03 - . Fyne Ales Sublime Stout bottles on display with a handwritten price sign in a British pub or beer shop. Photographed on 27 March 2024. The recorded location is Britain, UK. The dark glass bottles carry distinctive red, black and white branding and are presented as an export stout. Fyne Ales is a Scottish independent brewery and Sublime is a strong stout associated with roasted malt character. The shelf display and price card give the photograph a natural retail and hospitality context. Within the history of hospitality, public houses form a distinctive strand of British social history
Coaching routes, tied brewery estates, Victorian urban growth and twentieth-century leisure each shaped the location and appearance of pubs, many of which later became restaurants, shops, housing or community assets. In relation to retail and leisure, historical context shows that local businesses offer unusually precise social-history evidence because names, branding and uses change more quickly than the buildings they occupy
A shop, café, pub or service company can disappear while the façade survives, leaving photographs as a record of the previous commercial life of the street. For the story of bilingual signage, it is useful to note that wayfinding developed from painted names and fingerposts into standardised road, rail and public-information systems
Local signs still retain distinctive typography or bilingual wording even within increasingly consistent national standards. Against the 2026 backdrop for hospitality, pub survival remains a live issue as energy, staffing, taxation and changing drinking habits affect the licensed trade
Historic and contemporary pub images therefore have relevance to community assets, nightlife, independent brewing, high-street change and hospitality economics. As of 2026, the position for retail and leisure is that independent and high-street businesses continue to face pressure from costs, online competition and changing consumer.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E9AN1A - Memento Park in Budapest, Hungary, showing Soviet era and communist period public monuments removed from the city after the fall of the Hungarian People's Republic. The bronze figure on the right is the Republic of Councils Monument, or Tanácsköztársasági emlékmű, by István Kiss, completed in 1969 and based on a dynamic revolutionary sailor image associated with the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic of 1919. The foreground relief appears to be the Hungarian Fighters in the Spanish International Brigades Memorial by Makrisz Agamemnon, also known as Memos Makris, made in 1968 to commemorate Hungarian volunteers who fought in the Spanish Civil War. The photograph is valuable for editorial use around Cold War history, communist propaganda, socialist realism, dictatorship memory, post-communist heritage, Eastern Bloc public art, political sculpture, regime change and the contested afterlife of monuments. Memento Park is an open-air museum where Budapest gathered many statues, busts, plaques and memorials that once stood in prominent public locations and carried the official visual language of party power, liberation myth, worker heroism and Soviet friendship. The composition contrasts the flat carved memorial figures with the dramatic running bronze statue, creating a strong visual example of how communist public art used heroic bodies, flags, movement and scale to communicate ideological certainty. The site is not simply nostalgic display: it is a carefully framed museum of authoritarian imagery, useful for understanding how art, architecture and public space were used to legitimise power. The green grass, open sky and park setting soften the scene visually, but the subjects remain linked to repression, censorship, propaganda, revolution, anti-fascist memory, Hungarian communism and the wider political history of Central Europe. The image suits travel guides, history publishing, education, museum features, political commentary, heritage tourism, dark tourism and art

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BCTGY4 - It's been dubbed ˜an unrepentant relic of yesteryear' - but fans of Stockport's Redrock development have come to its defence.
The sprawling complex has made the shortlist for Business Design magazine's Carbuncle Cup - the annual gong which is dished out in a bid to pinpoint ˜Britain's worst building completed in the past 12 months'.
Many M.E.N readers have taken to social media to share their views about Redrock since the news was announced.
And while the majority thought the nomination was justified, with one commentator describing the imposing structure as a ˜leaning Lego warehouse', others were quick to leap to its defence.

Although glowing praise for its exterior wasn't exactly forthcoming, many pointed out that it's what's on the inside that counts.
The £45m complex has a 10-screen cinema, restaurants, a bar, gym, large car park and public open space.
Michelle Ferris said: I love it! Best cinema!
Yvonne Brookes said: The cinema is fab. I won't go anywhere else now.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ5MJ - The medieval Glasgow Cross was located on the road between High Street and Saltgait. Its modern replacement was built to the south-east of the original location to aid traffic. The town's tron was placed on the steeple of the town house in the 1550s. The Tron Steeple, as it became known, still stands in Glasgow Cross, one of the few remaining pre-Victorian buildings in Glasgow.
The area now known as 'Merchant City' was developed from the 1750s onwards. Residences and warehouses of the wealthy merchant tobacco lords (who prospered in shipping and, amongst other things, tobacco, sugar and tea) were built in the area. The district west of the High Street formed the historic backbone of the city, the development of what is now known as with wide, straight streets, vistas, and squares, marked the beginning of a process of aspirational residential movement westwards that would continue throughout the 19th century and into the 20th with the development of Blythswood Hill, Hillhead and the West End of Glasgow.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ5KT - The medieval Glasgow Cross was located on the road between High Street and Saltgait. Its modern replacement was built to the south-east of the original location to aid traffic. The town's tron was placed on the steeple of the town house in the 1550s. The Tron Steeple, as it became known, still stands in Glasgow Cross, one of the few remaining pre-Victorian buildings in Glasgow.
The area now known as 'Merchant City' was developed from the 1750s onwards. Residences and warehouses of the wealthy merchant tobacco lords (who prospered in shipping and, amongst other things, tobacco, sugar and tea) were built in the area. The district west of the High Street formed the historic backbone of the city, the development of what is now known as with wide, straight streets, vistas, and squares, marked the beginning of a process of aspirational residential movement westwards that would continue throughout the 19th century and into the 20th with the development of Blythswood Hill, Hillhead and the West End of Glasgow.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRC3 - . Fashion gaffe's, the late 1970's avocado bath with gold taps. Photographed on 27 July 2013. The recorded location is Uttoxeter Road, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, ST3 1PQ. The historical context is that fashion is often best understood through small details such as buttons, cuts, textiles and finishes
These elements show how garments are constructed and can distinguish bespoke tailoring, formalwear, uniforms or the distinctive styles of a specific decade. As background, older buildings and artefacts provide tangible evidence that written records cannot fully replace
Their wear, construction, signage and setting help researchers understand local history, design, industry and social life across different periods. The subject remains topical in 2026 because current discussion of clothing often contrasts disposable fast fashion with quality, longevity and skilled manufacture
Tailoring details can therefore support stories about craftsmanship, sustainability and consumer choice. Against the 2026 backdrop, conservation is increasingly considered alongside regeneration, climate resilience and adaptive reuse
The value of a historic subject therefore lies not only in nostalgia but in the evidence it provides about materials, local identity and how places change. Historically, textiles and clothing form part of material culture, linking personal appearance with skilled trades, manufacturing and retail
A close-up can therefore illustrate not only fashion but the techniques and labour behind a garment. In historical terms, clothing details record both craftsmanship and changing taste
Tailoring, buttons, fabrics and formal dress can reveal manufacturing quality, social conventions and fashion cycles that move between bespoke production and mass-market clothing. Other closely matched search terms include menswear, fashion history, sartorial, garment construction, quality clothing, traditional tailoring, heritage, and historic environment.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RM9AT1 - City Hall is the headquarters of the Greater London Authority (GLA), which comprises the Mayor of London and the London Assembly. It is located in Southwark, on the south bank of the River Thames near Tower Bridge. It was designed by Norman Foster and opened in July 2002, two years after the Greater London Authority was created.
For the first two years of its existence, the Greater London Authority was based at Romney House, Marsham Street in Westminster. Meetings of the London Assembly took place at Emmanuel Centre, also on Marsham Street.
City Hall was constructed at a cost of £43 million on a site formerly occupied by wharves serving the Pool of London. The building does not belong to the GLA but is leased under a 25-year rent. Despite its name, City Hall is not in and does not serve a city (according to UK law), which often adds to the confusion of Greater London with the City of London, which has its headquarters at Guildhall. In June 2011, Mayor Boris Johnson announced that for the duration of the London 2012 Olympic Games, the building would be called London House.
The predecessors of the Greater London Authority, the Greater London Council and the London County Council, had their headquarters at County Hall, upstream on the South Bank. Although County Hall's old council chamber is still intact, the building is unavailable for use by the GLA because of its conversion into, among other things, a luxury hotel, amusement arcade and aquarium.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H2MB14 - This documentary stock photograph shows Bank Tube Station and passengers, City Of London, at Dusk. The image records Bank Underground station and passengers in the City of London, making it useful for editorial features on commuting, public transport, the Tube, City workers, finance district footfall and the pressure on central London interchanges. The City of London and Liverpool Street area is a dense mix of railway infrastructure, Underground stations, offices, historic streets, pubs, retail units and constant pedestrian movement, so even a modest street or station view carries strong relevance for stories about commuting, working life, commercial property, transport investment and the post-pandemic future of the office. The caption and visible detail suggest low light, dusk or evening atmosphere, readable signage, giving the photograph a practical, real-world quality that works for news, business and travel use. It can support articles about the Square Mile, banking, insurance, office rents, rail usage, Tube crowding, cycling, public art, tourism, station redevelopment, after-work hospitality and London as both a workplace and visitor destination. Search-friendly composite terms include City of London commuters, Liverpool Street railway station, Bank Underground station, Cornhill financial district, London office economy, Square Mile public realm, London 2012 Olympic legacy and central London transport hub. The photograph can also illustrate wider themes of regeneration, heritage, carbon-conscious travel, pedestrian movement, evening economy, retail footfall and how transport nodes shape urban property values. Its editorial strength lies in being specific enough for captions and broad enough for business, transport, finance, urban planning, tourism and local history stories. The image is also useful where editors need a recognisable London environment without relying on the most overused postcard views.

Follow me on Twitter twitter.com/HotpixUK
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
This is one of my favourite tracks from 'Welcome to My Nightmare', the eighth album by Alice Cooper, released in 1975. This was Alice Cooper's first solo album (all previous Alice Cooper releases were band efforts). The cover artwork was created by Drew Struzan for Pacific Eye &
Ear. Rolling Stone would later rank it as one of the 'Top 100 Album Covers Of All Time'.
Welcome to My Nightmare is a concept album. The songs, heard in sequence, form a journey through the nightmares of a child named Steven. Welcome to My Nightmare inspired the Alice Cooper: The Nightmare TV special and a worldwide concert tour in 1975, and the Welcome To My Nightmare concert film in 1976.
The song Welcome to my Nightmare is a parody of the 1968 novel 'There's a Nightmare in My Closet' by Mercer Mayer. Famed film actor of the Horror genre Vincent Price provided the introductory monologue in the song 'The Black Widow'. VP can be seen in the video link.
Alice Cooper was born Vincent Damon Furnier in 1948. He is an American rock singer, songwriter and musician whose career spans more than four decades. With a stage show that features guillotines, electric chairs, fake blood, boa constrictors and baby dolls, Cooper has drawn equally from horror movies, vaudeville and garage rock to pioneer a grandly theatrical and violent brand of heavy metal designed to shock. He came decades before the likes of Marilyn Manson and others.

....So slide over here
and give me a moment....
INXS (pronounced 'in excess', In-X-S) are an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays are Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar/keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar/sax.
In the early 1980s, INXS first charted in their native Australia with their debut self-titled album, but later garnered moderate success elsewhere with Shabooh Shoobah and a single, 'The One Thing'. Though The Swing brought more success from around the world, its single 'Original Sin' was even greater commercially, becoming their first number-one single. They would later achieve international success with a series of hit recordings through later in the 1980s and the 1990s, including the albums Listen Like Thieves, Kick, and X
and the singles 'What You Need', 'Need You Tonight', 'Devil Inside', 'New Sensation', and 'Suicide Blonde'.
Hutchence's private life was often reported in the Australian and international press, with a string of love affairs with prominent actresses, models and singers. Hutchence's relationship with UK television presenter, Paula Yates, began while she was still married to music artist and Live Aid organiser, Saint Bob Geldof.
Hutchence and Yates had a daughter in 1996 just after she had divorced Geldof. Hutchence's death in 1997 was determined by the New South Wales Coroner to be the result of suicide \u2013 the finding was disputed by Yates, Hutchence's family and his fans. In 2000, Yates died of a heroin overdose and their daughter was placed in Geldof's custody with her half-sisters.

Photographed on 22 May 2010, this spring image records the subject in its real-world setting and provides a contemporary visual reference for the place, activity, object or organisation shown. The recorded location is John Rylands Research Institute and Library, 150 Deansgate, Manchester, England, UK, M3 3EH, adding precise geographical context for editorial, documentary, travel and local-history searches. Key searchable subjects associated with the scene include John Rylands Library, Research Institute, John Rylands Research Institute and Library, M3 3EH, Deansgate, gentlemen, fashioned, toilets, WCs, sink, sinks, marble, providing natural SEO coverage without losing the specific documentary identity of the photograph. Architecturally, the scene records the form, materials, scale and public-facing character of the built environment, making it useful for coverage of design, planning, conservation, development and urban identity. The image has value for architectural and place-based research because buildings and interiors can be refurbished, repurposed, demolished or substantially altered, while streets and public spaces also evolve. The heritage dimension gives the photograph relevance to local history, conservation, collective memory, historic buildings and objects, civic identity and the ways in which earlier generations are represented in today's public realm. As a contemporary record of a historic subject, it can illustrate preservation, interpretation, restoration, tourism and debates about how cultural and industrial heritage is maintained and reused. The frame provides a detailed documentary record of the subject as it appeared at the time of photography, preserving the surrounding context as well as the principal feature. The scene contributes a specific, place-based record rather than a generic illustration.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4503896012 - 'Chris is the operations manager (M.Inst.ICCM to give him his proper title) at Northwich Town Council for cemetaries. He looks after the allocation of burial and cremation plots at Northwich and Rudheath in Cheshire. He is a great chap and I was inspired to have a little window into his job.
It is his job to catalog each interment and here he is looking at a ledger of burials from 1893 onwards. Documentation becomes sparse much before this. All of the records in Northwich are in fact paper records in ledgers like this, they have not yet been computerised or fully digitised. Often a usual day at his office is taken up at least in part by family tree enquiries and manual searches of the books of carefully hand written entries. The books are now getting quite worn and tired, some flaking and coming apart unfortunately.
I had quite a long interesting chat with Chris, who as you might expect had quite an enlightened view of death and burial. The British and indeed largly northern European view of it tend to keep it hidden. However it is the only one of two things we will all encounter in life, the second being tax.
Human burial practices are generally bourne from the human desire to demonstrate 'respect for the dead'. Also to prevent the possibilities of revenants harming the living.
Here are the main reasons for this-
Respect for the physical remains. If left lying on top of the ground, scavengers may eat the corpse, considered disrespectful to the deceased in many (but not all) cultures. In Tibet, Sky burials return the remains to the cycle of life and acknowledge the body as 'food,' a core tenet of some Buddhist practices. Parsi's in India expose the body to the air, birds, insects etc to be picked clean. This last one is not so far away from what ancient britons did when bones were picked clean then stored in communal chambers, as have been found in the Scotish hebrides and particularly on Mull.
Burial can be seen as an attempt to bring closure to the deceased's family and friends. Psychologists in some Western Judeo-Christian quarters, as well as the US funeral industry, claim that by interring a body away from plain view, the pain of losing a loved one can be lessened.
Many cultures believe in an afterlife. Burial is sometimes believed to be a necessary step for an individual to reach the afterlife.
Many religions prescribe a particular way to live, which includes customs relating to disposal of the dead.
He is seeing a rise in green / natural funerals. Bodies buried five to ten feet down in a wicker or biodegradable container, sometimes not even in a traditional cemetary setting. Cremation is becoming ever more popular too. Suffice to say, Chris and the job he does should be safe for sometime to come.

The Glock is a series of semi-automatic pistols designed and produced by Glock GmbH, located in Deutsch-Wagram, Austria. Glock commands over 65% of the market share of handguns for United States law enforcement agencies.
The Glock 17 became a standard NATO-classified sidearm and was granted a NATO Stock Number 1005/25/133/6775.
The Glock 17 is a 9mm short recoil-operated locked breech semi-automatic pistol that uses a modified Browning cam-lock system adapted from the Hi-Power pistol. The firearm's locking mechanism utilizes a linkless, vertically tilting barrel with a rectangular breech that locks into the ejection port cut-out in the slide. During the recoil stroke, the barrel moves rearward initially locked together with the slide approximately 3 mm (0.12 in) until the bullet leaves the barrel and chamber pressure drops to a safe level. Thus care must be taken to keep your lower thumb of the hand clear when using the pistol. Otherwise your skin can aquire a tasty rip or bruise.

It is also the constituancy of Mr Cameroone, current leader of the Tory party (possible prime minister or another ex-Tory leader if he fluffs that gig in May 2010).
A buttercross (as seen here), also known as butter cross, is a type of market cross associated with English market towns, such as Witney and dating from medieval times. Its name originates from the fact that they were located at the market place (same as today), where people from neighbouring villages would gather to buy locally produced butter, milk and eggs. The fresh produce was laid out and displayed on the circular stepped bases of the cross.
Their design varies from place to place, but they are usually covered by some type of roof to offer shelter, although the roofs were mostly added at a much later date than the original cross they cover.
Witney Market began in the Middle Ages. Thursday is the traditional market day and I have spent some interesting lunchtimes here. There is also a market on Saturday. The buttercross was built in about 1600 and its clock was added in 1683.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4393241074 - 'The grave of Rob Roy MacGregor, who died 28th December 1734 aged 70 is within the grounds of Balquhidder church looking over Loch Voil.
The stone over Rob Roy's grave reads 'MacGregor Despite Them' The MacGregor clan was the only clan in history to be 'proscribed' - that is, it became illegal to be a MacGregor, on three separate occasions. To survive, clan members took on other names, many of which their descendants still use today.
The Graves of Rob Roy and Helen/Mary MacGregor and their sons Coll and Robert are also interred there.
In the kirkyard of Balquhidder's Parish Church, the ruins of the Old Church it replaced can be clearly seen up the hill behind Rob Roy's grave. Its situated on the lower slopes of the north side of Balquhidder Glen. It reflects the continuation of a tradition of worship in the glen that goes back 4000 years or more. The Celts believed this to be a 'thin place' where the spiritual world and the earthly world came close together. To the south is a spur of Ben Ledi ('the hill of God') and traces of a Neolithic temple dating back to 1800 BC have been found in the glen.
A graveyard stone describes how the MacLarens were attacked by the MacGregors of Glen Dochart. 18 MacLaren families resident in Balquhidder were murdered in the Glen before settling on their land. At the time the MacGregors largely evaded responsibility for what would today be called an act of genocide. But it was one of the factors later held against them (the more immediate being their slaying of several hundred members of Clan Colquhoun at the Battle of Glen Fruin on 7 February 1603) when the entire Clan MacGregor was outlawed by James VI in April 1603. These were very bloody times. It became a capital offence even to carry the name MacGregor.

I have memories of my old mum, coming home from catholic church on Sunday talking about that scruffy 'Tony Wilson' turning with 'dodgy shoes'. This was when he lived in Charlesworth with Lindsay Reade. In his youth he lived in affluent Marple, Stockport Cheshire.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CF2211 - . Blue Cap historic Pub and drinking place A556 at Dusk , Cheshire , England, United Kingdom. Photographed on 9 February 2010. The recorded location is Blue Cap Hotel, A556, , Sandiway, Cheshire, England, Great Britain. The Blue Cap in Cheshire was named after a noted 18th century foxhound marked with a dark patch on its head. Historically, british pubs evolved from inns, taverns and alehouses into licensed social institutions that have long served as meeting places, drinking houses, music venues and landmarks within town and village life
Their architecture, signs, interiors and evolving names often preserve layers of local commercial and social history. As background, heritage photography is particularly useful where buildings or objects have changed function
A former workplace, shop, transport structure or piece of equipment can become a museum object or landmark, linking everyday history with conservation and interpretation. Historically, seasonal and low-light photography can emphasise the relationship between natural conditions and the built environment
Dusk, snow, mist or dramatic cloud often reveal lighting, silhouettes and reflective surfaces that are less apparent in ordinary daylight. In 2026, in England the sector remains under pressure from operating costs and business rates, although eligible pubs and live-music venues receive a 15% business-rates relief/27
That makes historical and contemporary pub photographs particularly relevant to coverage of hospitality, community assets and evolving town centres. Against the 2026 backdrop, conservation is increasingly considered alongside regeneration, climate resilience and adaptive reuse
The value of a historic subject therefore lies not only in nostalgia but in the evidence it provides about materials, local identity and how places change. Relevant synonyms and subject phrases include public house, licensed premises, hostelry, bar trade, real ale, cask ale, beer culture, and local pub.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CF0N0W - . St Wilfrids Catholic Church Panorama Northwich showing wooden roof. Photographed on 22 December 2009. The recorded location is Witton Street, Northwich, Cheshire, England, UK. In the longer view, churches combine worship with architecture, local memory and centuries of community history
Their stonework, stained glass, memorials, furnishings and churchyards often record successive periods of rebuilding, evolving liturgy, local benefactors, war remembrance and family history. In historical terms, panoramic and atmospheric views place individual landmarks within their wider setting
Light, season and weather affect how architecture and landscape are perceived, while distant development can offer clues to the changing form of a town or coastline. Current 2026 relevance comes from the fact that historic places of worship remain important not only for faith but also for conservation, tourism, music, community use and local identity
Their maintenance illustrates the continuing challenge of caring for ageing heritage buildings while keeping them accessible and relevant. During 2026, landscape imagery is increasingly used alongside discussion of climate, resilience, tourism and development
Older panoramas can show how skylines, waterfronts and vegetation have changed over a comparatively short period. In historical terms, parish churches and cathedrals are among Britain's richest sources of architectural and social history
Medieval fabric, Victorian restoration, monuments, stained glass, organs, altars and inscriptions can coexist in a single building, reflecting generations of worship and local patronage. From a heritage perspective, ecclesiastical buildings are both active places of worship and repositories of local history
Architectural details, memorials and churchyard monuments provide evidence for religious practice, craftsmanship, community identity, genealogy and the changing use of sacred space.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4083459935 - 'A carved orange pumpkin (Squash) ready for use at the festival of Halloween as a lantern. Lighting provided by a sparker to produce yellow hair.
Pumpkins are commonly carved into decorative lanterns called jack-o'-lanterns for the Halloween season in North America. Throughout Britain and Ireland, there is a long tradition of carving lanterns from vegetables, particularly the turnip, mangelwurzel, or swede.
Not until 1837, however, does jack-o'-lantern appear as a term for a carved vegetable lantern, and the carved lantern does not become associated specifically with Halloween until 1866.
Although every modern chronicle of the holiday repeats the claim that vegetable lanterns were a time-honored component of Halloween celebrations in the British Isles, none gives any primary documentation. In fact, none of the major nineteenth-century chronicles of British holidays and folk customs makes any mention whatsoever of carved lanterns in connection with Halloween. Neither do any of the standard works of the early twentieth century.
In the US, the carved pumpkin was first associated with the harvest season in general, long before it became an emblem of Halloween

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CEY9K7 - Example of long exposure painting with light. LED torch with a camera mounted on a tripod. The car used here was a Citroen Picasso.
Light painting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source or by moving the camera.
The term light painting also encompasses images lit from outside the frame with hand-held light sources. Light Painting Photography can be traced back to the year 1914 when Frank Gilbreth, along with his wife Lillian Moller Gilbreth, used small lights and the open shutter of a camera to track the motion of manufacturing and clerical workers.
Man Ray, in his 1935 series Space Writing, was the first known art photographer to use the technique and Barbara Morgan began making light paintings in 1940.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H9PM3H - Avanti West Coast is a train operating company in the United Kingdom owned by FirstGroup (70%) and Trenitalia (30%) that operates the West Coast Partnership.
During November 2016, the Department for Transport (DfT) announced the InterCity West Coast franchise would be replaced by the West Coast Partnership (WCP). In August 2019, the DfT awarded the WCP franchise to the First Trenitalia consortium. On 8 December 2019, Avanti West Coast took over operations from the prior operating company Virgin Trains, which had run the franchise since 1997. Originally, the franchise was initially scheduled to run until March 2030, and had also been set to operate the initial High Speed 2 services from 2026. However, during December 2020, it was announced that First Trenitalia and the DfT had agreed to terminate the WCP franchise at the earlier date of 31 March 2026 as part of the abolition of the franchise system. Since then a number of contract changes have taken place due to COVID-19 and then poor performance by the company. As of March 2023, the company's contract will expire in October 2023.
Between 14 August and 18 September 2022, Avanti West Coast reduced its timetable, citing unofficial strike action from its employees. However, this allegation was disputed by Aslef, which accused the company of lying and blamed their lack of recruitment, especially of train drivers, for the problems. Trains were running at one service per hour on the majority of routes, as opposed to the three which would typically occur on the London Euston to Manchester Piccadilly route. Following these changes, Avanti West Coast was subject to public criticism
news stories emerged of numerous train cancellations, overcrowded services, delays, and expensive fares. Many commuters faced difficulties reaching their destinations on the reduced services and some travellers have been left to wait for to two days before travel for tickets to be released for sale

Internally, in the bar, is a stone inscribed in Latin and the date 1722
