Default Tories 20BN railway to replace Heathrow expansion (St Pancras is Heathrow T6, again)

auf uk.railway :

No French journey from Paris or Spanish journey from Madrid
is as long as London to Aberdeen.

With London - Edinburgh taking about 4:30 hours, and the short rest
more than 2:30h. What would have a stronger effect on the total trip
time - building a HSL in England, or electrifying Edinburgh to
Aberdeen?


Cheers,
L.W.
