There has been a campaign to run the Abbey Flyer into Euston in the
past, but it always ran into the problem that Virgin needed the train
paths, whereas St Albans already has a direct route into London

There has to be room on the slow lines, as LM are increasing the
service in December with some Watford shuttles that could easily run
through from St Albans if the infrastructure was sorted.

Where will this tram be maintained? *How will it reach that location?
If it is to reach Bletchley, it will have to be 25 kV Ac, or pulled by
another motive power unit.

My best guess is that these issues have been considered.

Why on earth would you want to get Network Rail involved?

Isn't one of the attractions of this that you are isolated from the "big
railway" and won't need to comply with (or have rolling stock that complies
with) Group Statdards?

Indeed. However, when I posted the foregoing, I was not aware that
the route was to have its own tram depot.
