I have to put aside my hatred for our gov's and what they spend money on for a min ,I also have read the opinions on this elsewhere.

Ok ,so it helps the business side of travel (trains are crammed ) which could possibly bring rewards in business which we in turn will have to assume will increase the countries economy (eventually ) and possibly create new jobs then maybe the gov will start to spend your cash on you (in 2021 of course).

thats it for going ahead with it that I can find. ...me  I'm against still at this time

ps  I was sure rail networks were now private ie virgin ,northern etc etc...so thanks for putting me straight on that point creeky 🙂
