[steam for ever]

Now I may be wrong here, but we are pretty much in the same position we were 100 years ago.
Many operating companies which made rail travel stressful and a need to change trains many times.

Now we have the same problem.
Sure you can have just the one ticket, but if you want to book you have to search all over the internet.

A fragmented network did not work 100 years ago, so how will it work this time?

BR at least meant it was more simple and you only had one set of people to go to.
Of course BR collapsed.

Maybe it is time to revert back to 4 main companies and by doing this heal the bad communication that sometimes hampers journies between the operator and NR?
What do yoy think?
Fix the mess, but how?
BR or big four?
