I saw quite a few news items about this yesterday, both on national TV news and in several daily papers.
18,000 train services per day from next Monday, extra trains, extra space, increased ventilation, extra cleaning, more information etc.
Is there really any substance to this or is it the art of selling a big lie? where will the extra trains come from, or is that just reinstating services which have been suspended?
Apparently a recent survey has shown that 90% of travellers 'now feel safe on public transport'- really? I imagine it depends how the question was put to them. Now it's been proved that large sections of the population will freely believe almost anything, is this just a massive PR exercise with little or nothing actually happening? Frankly, I don't buy any of it but so long as people are put at ease, that's all that matters isn't it.
How do you increase ventilation on an air conditioned train? - knock a few windows out?
