OK, oops. But there's still a premium, even if I overstated its

None-the-less, I think this may indicate a way forward for suburban
rail development. It seems that the market will pay more for a

You may have missed it in one of the other threads on the HS1 and its fares,

compared to other parts of the London commuter area.
