Thus slowing down the process of boarding, and decreasing HEX's advantage over the Tube (or indeed Heathrow Connect, which apparently won't be affected!) More ****e from the Government. What a surprise. I have a sneaking suspicion that the idea behind this is to say, "look, we tried to do it here, it really didn't work, so we'll not bother spending the lots of money doing it elsewhere." I don't believe the man who brought you the "45 minute response" and "90 dys internment will make a difference" can think this clearly I don't think anything like this is one person's idea. This sort of thing will make a lot of people *very* rich, and because it will never work there's an unlimited number of `upgrades` and `replacements` to come. |
