The winner of the London Overground concession is MTR Laing according


Sounds like a sensible decision. Why pick people who already have
years of experience running railways when you can pick a building
firm.


But isn't Laing Rail actually Chiltern, and the construction business
was sold off years ago. The Evening Standard in London is apparently
saying the Chinese have won the bid, though. Not sure what that means.
