@Heliograph oh indeed. I suspect the section to build first was the North, and a quite quick railway would have sufficed.
@Photo55 @Heliograph “The North? What’s that?” - UK Govt, probably.
@richrockster @Heliograph
Well, #Manchester, for a start, and I guarantee the UK gov is conscious of that.
@Photo55 let me add *they* is hereby both sides of the political spectrum
@Heliograph as well as all three ends of it.
We have substantial groups, some of whom are generated and funded locally or at worst within our own population, opposing essentially anything anyone else wants to do.
We need better solutions to that.
