So the introduction of the HST was the beginning of the return to rail from about 1980 onwards! Strangely enough what Beeching hoped for!

Incidentally I am not always the biggest fan of Pete Waterman but I thought his programme on BBC 4 last night, (Beeching Tracks in the West Midlands) was excellent.

Best wishes,
