Just how many platforms would require lengthening for a fast Transpennine service stopping only at the major stations longer stations allows longer carriages NO allows more carriages having crossed the London lines south of Stockport the TPE trains takes about 3 minutes longer than the Avanti or Cross country services

The police much prefer to deal with the aftermath than with prevention

What evidence do you have to say cash use is on the increase and over what period. I now use my debit card in supermarkets like Tesco and Asda even if only spending 20p simply because I have got fed up with them constantly getting rid of all their small coins on the self service tills. I don’t want 2x20p and 2x 5p when a 50p coin will suffice.

Is there any evidence to support the case that the new mob know how to run the service efficiently and within budget because unless they are going to bring in transportation expertise from outside then sorry it won’t happen. I agree though that our local politicians will meddle and interfere likely with costly implications -
New Supertram Stop Approved

Did they not build a temporary station at Workington north after flooding in a few days at a cost of under a quarter of a million with over 2000 passengers a day using it. yes you can build a station cheaply , if you want but why bother when no one questions you. bet nothing like 2000 will use the station every day, have they published how many users they expect to use the new station? If not they should so they can be held accountable
