Essential for policy makers
Another fantastic episode of the must-listen-to rail podcast Green Signals
Every politician of every party should be forced to listen/read
I find podcasts a great way to catch up on events or analyse current trends... Green Signals is one of the best I've come across.
Is the £2bn contract for 54 HS2 trains about to be rewritten?
And is it true that HS2 is going to ‘end in a field’, as was reported last week?
Plus, we preview some very exciting upcoming videos, including an interview with Chair of the Transport Select Committee Ruth Cadbury MP, and a Class 66 cab ride on East West Rail.
