It was due to release in autumn 2019, but after spending more time than I'd like to admit scouring the web, I can't work out what happened to it. Everything goes quiet in late 2019 and it just seems to have been kicked into the long grass.
The only recent references to it are in "Marketing Stockport", who just say "In 2018, the government set up the Williams Rail Review to recommend the most appropriate organisational and commercial frameworks to support the delivery of the government’s vision for the railway. Led by independent chair Keith Williams, the Rail Review’s recommendations will be implemented from 2020", which suggests they know about as much as I do, and in the House of Commons library, who say "A review of the railways, chaired by Keith Williams, is ongoing." (https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/insights/on-the-right-track-the-future-of-rail-services/)
Does anyone know more? Is there any good reason why autumn 2019 came and went with no announcement and now it's simply being ignored, or is it just the usual bull****? Or has the report been released and I've just missed it? - It's been known to happen
