Tram-trains in Manchester
Source: Nonsuchmike
Does this actually mean that councils will run test vehicles over tracks in each city area? Or does it mean they are just going to sit on their brains and think about it, doing nothing concrete?
Will these routes on tracks renewed, re-installed or refurbished be instead of, or in addition to, the existing network? What about transferability of ticketing? The continentals seem to do this at the drop of a hat, but it seems an intellectual and logistic step too far for the highly paid executives of our privatised systems.
C’mon, get real, wake up and smell the coffee; if they can do it seamlessly in Prague, Barcelona and Madrid, to name but three, then surely we can do it in ONE of our major conurbations?
