BevanPrice remarked:

Will the tentative journeys on offer run from Whitechapel all the way
out to Paddington via Mt. Pleasant, BTW?

BBC: "Two new trains, based on the originals, will carry up to 32
passengers on a 0.6 mile (1km) section of the line."


At £16 per 0.6m, it is even more expensive (per mile) than Heathrow Express.


So is the Snowdon Mountain Railway (at about £5/mile).
