Bid to reopen old train line (BBC News)
 
An historic rail line between two Devon towns could be reopened by a developer, in exchange for being allowed to build 750 new houses.

I have already heard about this idea. Sounds good to me!

Have you worked out that if the line costs £20M and they build 750 houses that is nearly £27000 per house before they even dig 1 foundation (if they still do that today).
