So the usual half-arsed British answer which achieves none of the
desired objectives and ultimately costs far more than doing the job
properly in the first place.

So you think spending 100B+ on a railway to shave off 30 mins for pax trains

It's more than an hour for many destinations in the Midlands.

Which ones?

Birmingham to Leeds, 1hr 9 mins.

Wow, so a ~2 hour journey becomes ~1 hour. Well worth the money then.
