re Public enquiry
I totally disagree with you. The Greyrigg "incident" was bad, but it was an "open and shut" case. The cause was discovered, the inspection regime was found to be faulty and I am sure that the holes will be plugged. With any complicated maintainance regime, faults show up now and again, changes are made, and the show goes on! The reference to accidents since privatisation is dragged out every time someone does something stupid. Look back 30 years or so when BR was in full control, accidents still happened but only the most spectacular ever made the press.
Question; Why is the UK the only country in the world which thinks railways are so dangerous that they have to be totally fenced in?
