Default The London commuter market - BR's last safe haven?

Were the 'Metropolitan' and 'Southern' private-sector
companies? If so, that's absolutely disgraceful, investing
money in the hope of making a profit at the expense of
hard-working families. Investment in such things should
always be left in the hands of HM (that is, The People's)
Treasury, who make a much better fist of it. Look at the
generous way they paid for -sorry, funded - BR's plans
in the post-war era.


Are you kidding?


That would be my guess.

It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes
