The #green future of #transport must include a major role for railways..... but rather the #Tories are focussing on 'financial sustainability' to force through more cuts & 'efficiency gains' on the #railways.
Rather than trying to expand passenger numbers by improving service levels & reducing ticket prices, we now see a Govt. telling the railways they must cut back because off declining revenues caused by lower passenger numbers.
NO! the point is to reverse this decline not cut back more!
