General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

To put it simply, forget about 'speed' the trains on the upgraded electrified lines are fast enough, and you don't need as many reasons to go to and from London, you can now take part in video conferencing instead.

So instead of speed, concentrate on capacity, by reopening the Beeching era and before lines, in which the track beds are still in situ, and could be brought back into service, for a relatively low price, if you put freight on those lines, and local passenger services, that would free up capacity on the WCML & ECML has well as other main lines, and do it all over the country, including Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland
