Diasi, As an ex-Londoner, it would not concern me in the least where it is started, which seems to bother some folk, its spending that amount on just 1 rail line, when the rest of the network countrywide is crap. if they cancelled this idiotic project, and announced they were going to start an extensive program of upgrading an improving the rail lines and rolling stock, consentrating in the North, and gradually working their way down I would be more than happy.
