We the undersigned would urge the relevant parties to have the word "Great" removed from First Great Western's name. According to the Oxford English Dictionary the word "great" means "of ability, quality, or eminence considerably above the average." Whilst irony is of course a most wonderful thing we would strongly argue their name is currently wholly inappropriate and that it is misleading to the public who may mistakenly expect a great service.

Change it to First Average Western at least that would be honest. Always delayed and half the time the toilets are broken too.
