Hursty local stations which were culled in the 60s,
LOL, okay, reopen village stations (some of the existing ones have as few as 3 passengers per day) rather than providing extra capacity on the trunk between arguably England’s three most important cities with already huge traffic flows (and potential revenue), which is really the point of HS2. I don’t need to respond to your earlier question, it seems you know zero about the railway as a business.
I don’t know a huge amount, but as someone who worked on a 6-month project doing customer data analytics for a TOC a decade ago, it’s substantially more than that.
