Interesting progamme last night I thought?  Brought a lot of the issues into sharp relief, especially on the likely massive overspend (surprise surprise) and the cack handed way those who have homes/businesses on the route are being handled.

If it goes the way of Crossrail, IET introduction, Thameslink, GW mainline electrification, NW electrification and Edinburgh to Glasgow electrification then we have a lot to be concerned about. All late and most over budget, some massively so.
