Unfortunately the vast majority of railway structures are well over 100 years old and will be more and more susceptible to sudden failure. British Railways in all it's guises has not been a good custodian of its real estate which is now in urgent need of rebuilding at what will be an eye watering cost. It is a legacy of being the World leader in railway building.
Question; Will the ultra- high speed lines around the World still be safe in 30 years time?
