According to an article in the Rail Tecnology Magazine “the railway across the north needs a “bigger, more expensive, and transformational” solution to fix its historical lack of investment, because what is committed now simply is not enough, rail bosses have said.”
The leaders of Transport for the North (TfN) and Northern Rail, David Brown and Alex Hynes, have agreed that, although the next 4 years will see the issue of under investment being addressed, it is still not enough to make all the changes required to make this one of the best regions in the world.
“At the moment, we have to compromise all the time,” Hynes added.
