As for cross-company billing it always amazes me that BAA's Connect
especially doesn't seem to tally the no. of pax. travelling on its
services. I mean from Hayes & Harlington it is possible to catch FGW
or Connect to Paddington. Yet neither company seems to account for the
passegers using its services. Mind you before computerisation and e-
tickets airlines.used to cross-bill each other using only a 2%
sampling of tickets collected. I know - that used to be my project.
But what samples do Connect and FGW use?

Presumably sorted out through Rail Settlement Plan and Orcats, just as
no-one is bothered whether a particular ticket is used on VT, NT, TP, AW,
XC, or EM between Manchester Piccadilly and Stockport.
