M1/M6 Parkway station and Leicester.


Electrify the London to Birmingham route at 25kV. Gradual
straightening of the kinks caused by removal of the platform loops
(e.g.)
Gerards Cross. In time some sections pushed to 125, 135, or even 145
mph.

There needs to be a tidying up of the interchanges with TfL's Central
Line. The Underground tracks should become the center pair. Stations
should be dual islands with cross platform interchange with Chiltern
Local Services. In time a third out pair could be added for
expresses.
