As far as I'm aware the ELL doesn't use a single foot of network rail
track, its all LUL owned. Do you think Network Rail and some profit-at-
all-costs TOC would do a better job of running the railway than LUL? I

don't.


Blimey, is this a smidgin of praise for LU?


Doubtful - I imagine in Boltar world that LU is rated as appallingly
awful but Network Rail and the TOCs are so awful as to be beyond
redemption.

In other words we're all crap.
