Sobering to see US backing inter-city passenger rail in way that feels impossible in Britain right now. It isn't sum of money that stands out as much as rhetoric: US politicians believe Americans want more+better rail. UK pols think Brits want less! #HS2 railwaygazette.com/us-government-…
'The railway company best placed to level up in terms of connecting the whole of Britain is us' says CrossCountry Trains MD Tom Joyner in a wide-ranging interview about an operator that is arguably the bellwether for the overall state of Britain's railways⤵️bit.ly/407CDIu
Everyone's working from home, so we don't need to invest in rail infrastructure. Meanwhile there are still 28 flights from Glasgow Airport to London airports a day! #NetworkNorth completely fails Scotland and the The SNP Scottish Labour should be furious. #HS2 #SunaksFolly
Thanks Alstom UK & Ireland Angel Trains and Avanti West Coast for a great visit. Good to see (sometimes unfairly maligned) Pendolinos getting some love. Fleet has run up 305 million miles in service in 21 years, and it might need to do the same again...
