How disappointing that the rail regulator has caved in to the moaning minnies and reinstated the 7am Manchester to London as a passenger service (‘People had forgotten about it’: onboard the 7am Manchester-London train service saved from axe, 4 December). Here was a brilliant idea being piloted before adoption across the rail network. Gone now is the dream of an efficient rail service unencumbered by the demands of so-called “humans” and their messy ways.
