Trans-Pennine Express

Radio 5 is featuring this rail service in their travel reports today.
I've been wondering who would have recorded an album with that name?

Half man...
...Half Biscuit?
Tribute to Kraftwerk...with the delights of the Standedge railway tunnel thrown in.
OMD
or Flock Of Seagulls I would suggest. Heavily influenced by the influential Kling Klang boffins but slightly naffer.
Trans-Pennine Express
featuring electronic north-of-England favourites:
Autobah-gum
Computer, love?
Ossett Calculator
The Voice of Weatherby
Das Middleton
And many, many more …
Who else but...
...'Guards' Van Morrison!
Er.....Me!

Double.post
Apologies
Great name...
... by the way. Do you see much of the excession these days?
Sadly, no...
I'm sure I left it round here somewhere...
I'm sure...
...it'll find you when it thinks you're ready!
(Anyone else got the reference yet?)
C'mon
BEF -British Electric Foundation,surely ?
Surely a.......
future Richard Hawley album title.
Maybe the name of a Manchester based supergroup
Consisting of Johnny Marr, Peter Hook, Ian Brown & Bez!!
This could be a new thread - travel blackspots as band names "And coming up next a session from Hanger lane Gyratory"
Dartford Tunnel
Could be a Dr Feelgood-esque sound? Or The Dartford Tunnels - sort of Darts, Showaddywaddy?
Radio 5 often refers to the "Dartford Tunnels".
This always reminds me of the Python sketch, where Cleese, suffering from apparent double-vision, is assembling an expedition to both peaks of Kilimanjaro, via the A23s, through Purleys to Rottingdeans to Nairobis.
