Jobs in different cities in the U.K.? Jobs in London pay far more than ones in Manchester or Birmingham, let alone the majority of the country. That’s the point - the junior jobs tend to be in the major cities especially London. If you are

And how many of those 800-900 actually eat in such a car, rather than collect something from the buffet and return to their seat. 95% of passengers are not sitting in a dining car watching the world go by in an Amtrak style experience.
