DavidB-AU Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Political and business leaders in the midlands are demanding that the government end decades of under-investment in the region’s transport by funding a £3.6bn plan to cut rail journey times and increase capacity. https://www.ft.com/content/84b2b742-d491-11e9-a0bd-ab8ec6435630 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted September 12, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 12, 2019 I'd be fascinated to learn what the 'improved track and services' comment means for Reading - Birmingham - Derby - Sheffield - ECML means in view of the fact that various sections of it have been resignalled in fairly recent years (e.g. most of Reading - Birmingham) and various sections of the Cross -Country routes involved have 30 minute interval train services plus parallel services in many places. So does it just mean longer trains in respect of some of these routes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
