I don't know what line you are on, but all the trains in my neck of the woods are modern and clean.

I know that there are one or two unmodernised lines, but I think there are plans afoot to modernise these too. However, most of the country is in quite a good position, with up to date coaches. The old British Rail simply didn't have that sort of money to invest, and if the railways are nationalised, it's likely to happen all over again.
