Do you *ever* accept that somebody might know what they're doing when
it comes to running the railway? Or do you just like ranting nonsense?

Well apparently part of the problem is not enough gravel/stones. I can't
remember the exact details. Something to do with it helps with the
expansion of the metal. Anyway the reason there isn't enough stones
round the rail? Cost-cutting.
And also the rest of the world manages to run its public transport with
2inches of snow, storms, rain, sunshine bringing the whole
infrastructure to a halt. So you tell me what the rest of the world has
that Britain doesn't?
Maybe a modern approach with finance used to its full potential?
