HS1 Domestic trains are a bit busy
In message , at 15:54:36 on Thu, 16 Jul
2009, Charles Lindsey remarked: Is a "private hire" car (aka minicab) public transport? Not unless you can walk up to one in the street and request immediate transport to some destination (i.e. unless it is a "Hackney Carriage"). Can you walk up to a railway station and "hail" a train for immediate transport in the same way? I think not. The important property of "Public" transport, is that anyone [with money] can use it. But sometimes you have to book it in advance. -- Roland Perry |
