Roger the teacher's answer was: "Would it." I never got my head around the problem. I have just Googled the cost of HS2 per mile, one was £307m per mile and the cost of building a motorway 29.7m per mile. What you say still stands, a railway would have to show a return and be self maintaining. VED is expected to raise £7.2 billion over the next year and every year after.
