Mexican wrestler aims to entice people back on trains
What would inspire you to get back on track and enjoying rail travel?
Lower fares, more reliable services or an Mexican wrestler named Loco?
Well if Loco Toledo has anything to do with it, it will be his enthusiasm for trains and, in particular, for Milton Keynes.
Loco is a wrestler from a small town in Mexico where there are very few trains who has been taken on board by Southern Trains in the hope he is the man to get people back on track and using the railways again.
Having recently arrived in England Loco was overjoyed to find there are hundreds of trains going everywhere to places he feels compelled to sing about, including
Loco's favourite destination –
Milton Keynes.
The lyrics to his catchy song go: "Ooooh! I love the train they are my thing, Oh Si and wrestling.
"Next I stop in Milton Keynes, they have an indoor slope, I not very good at skiing, for me there is no hope."
Loco said: "I love England. It is the home of trains, but why so many people staying home doing nothing? I make it my mission to help them!"
Southern Railway is also trying to advertise its new 50 per cent off
off-peak travel offer when you book online.
