Amazing. I bet HS2 was going to fix congestion in Penzance too So much coolaid being drunk Note how Sheffield, Newcastle and Liverpool aren't in any HS2 plans

  Newcastle and Sheffield ran over eastern leg, Newcastle especially benefiting on services to Birmingham. Liverpool on the western leg. I always felt landing the leg south of Acton bridge was odd as it meant you still had the winsford bottleneck, but again better service to Birmingham and London Improved services from Liverpool to Manchester relies on the airport-centre leg in Manchester to avoid castlefield and Stockport bottlenecks
