The Nationalrail website reports that all Silverlink tickets are valid
on Virgin trains between London and Liverpool/Birmingham.  Does
anybody know the reason for this?

As this is the case, it seems like a good idea to get a *Silverlink
only* First Class return for a mere £30 as opposed to a whacking £75
for Virgin, and still receive the food and alcoholic drinks!

The answer is given at the bottom of that same page:

Start date 	Monday 12 April 2004
End date 	Wednesday 14 April 2004

Description 	Due to extended Engineering work Silverlink will not be
operating services to and from Birmingham New Street to London Euston.

HTH,
