And also the rest of the world manages to run its public transport with

Not true. Try Washington DC with three flakes of snow, or much of
California after ten minutes of rain.

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?

That may be true. Privatisation has cost the railways an awful lot - the
current SRA payments to TOCS are three or four times amounts that Sir
Bob Reid would have thought beyond his wildest dreams.
