Hi klordger,

I entirely agree. A problem for the railway is that it's competitors don't play by the same rules. My nephew is an HGV driver, his working conditions are far worse than most rail workers. His hours are limited only by the tacograph, he sleeps in the cab, and pay and conditions vary enormously. Bob Crow would be horrified!!

Whats more road transport, especially hualage, doesn't begin to pay for the road infrastructure it uses.
