None?
So no Tramlink, no Midland Metro, no ELL to Highbury?
And New Romney - really?
Quite - Broad Street was effectively a corpse , and the money raised for development really paid for the refurb of Liverpool Street , and Epping to Ongar was not really a major contributer to the London economy.
Well, yes you might have a point with Broad Street station. But don't forget, the post was talking about
Broad Street - Dalston Junction, a route which clearly shouldn't have closed, because it's in the middle of London that has several trains an hour today.
And yes, New Romney, absolutely. I grew up in Ashford and visit regularly, and it would be wonderful to still be able to catch the train to the Romney coast !
Midland Metro ? How much money have we had to waste to put back a route and a station that was already there - getting rid of Snow Hill alone was a folly, they had to put it back ten years after demolition, and instead of having a beautiful cathedral station befitting of Birmingham's status as a major city, we've ended with a dull 1980's concrete box.
I'm not saying there weren't reasons for the mistakes of the past - just that they were mistakes. As an example, I had good reasons for moving to Reading in the early noughties - it was still a mistake !
