This Work Experience Boy Didn’t Hold Back When He Took Over Southern Rail’s Twitter
Southern Rail doesn’t have the best reputation thanks to its constant rail strikes, frequent delays and extortionate prices.

Luckily though, it looks like the company’s image has been saved slightly thanks to the help of one eager work experience kid called Eddie.
Earlier this week, Southern Rail decided to hand over the reigns of its Twitter account to 15-year-old Eddie and the results were pure gold. The online community seized the opportunity to send ridiculous questions, and good old Eddie had a witty or insightful comeback for every single one.
Hi, Eddie here! Here on Work Experience and ready to answer your questions! 😊

Hi, it has to be a war monger. The fish monger at my nearest ASDA is amazing. ^Eddie

Hi, if you need the correct amount, always start off with around 200g per person, then build up depending on how much 1/2

For a 15-year-old kid, Eddie is pretty on the ball – he’s already figured out that the only real love in this world is Doritos. Many followers said he’d done more in two days “to recover Southern’s reputation” than the company had done in the past two years.
There’s your answer Southern Rail – if you’re going to constantly screw up and charge us outrageous prices to travel the country, then at least throw out some witty tweets every now and then.
