Fame at last: Paul's moment in the spotlight March '15

Moving away from progress with both 2599 and 1321 for a moment, with a brief dedication to our project leader Paul Waplington, whom is becoming something of an overnight sensation thanks to his ability to greet his National Express passengers in 25 different languages.

He is also highly commended by many for his attempts to not only make coach travel a fun and entertaining experience, but also his larger than life personality and 'above and beyond' approach to customer service (something I have first hand experience of). He is also highly popular amongst his regular passengers on both the 329 service from Nottingham to Newcastle and the 450 service from Nottingham to London.

So far Paul has been interviewed by transport industry press, news channels and radio about his efforts, and his popularity has continued to grow. So well done Paul, and here is the link to the youtube video, which has over 27,000 hits as I write this!
