Protection racket

I see train conductors on First Great Western no longer appear to be called train conductors. Their job has been re-described as 'revenue protection'. Except some days I can get on at un-manned Hayle station and travel to Truro without seeing them once. So not protecting that revenue too well, then. And we wonder why the train companies keep asking for more subsidy ... Speaking of trains, have to chuckle that the new buffet at Camborne station, presumably specialising in cold meat sandwiches, is called the Beef Hen Counter.
