Virgin West Coast don't serve Wembley, or Olympia, have never done,

London traffic, with people going with a cheaper MKC-Wembley/Olympia

bothered with, and London Midland already run services there anyway.

And there is a cheaper LM-only ticket from MKC to EUS/R1256 off-peak.
That's the competition, really.

I wonder if there will be a comparable SN ticket - it will be unfortunate if
passenger numbers are undermined by two GoVia run franchises not acting in
each others interests...
