    West Coast Railways Suspended (now reinstated)

    It's well known that where there's a will there's a way, if the ultimate aim of any participants in a dispute is the same, a successful conclusion can usually be reached, a problem arises when one party does not have the same aim in mind and uses the dispute for their own long term agenda.
