I've heard several people on this disscusion suppose that prizatizing the railroad will be better for passengers, better fr the railroad...... Try taking a train in England! They went privat in 1997 and it was disasterous! You can take a train at 0945 from Manchester to London for £45, or if you don't mind waiting around for another 4 hrs, there will be another one at 1350 for £12. But if you've already purchased your ticket for the 0945 train you can't now exchange it fr the 1350 as they are different operators. Infact there are no echanges permitted at all, unless you pay entirely. Also, there are plenty of trains going to London, Manchester, Edinbough, Glascoe, but not any trains going to ponty pool, because it is not as popular. End result is everyone wants a pies of the trains that are popular, nobody wants any of the ones not as popular. Not really surprising thatthe government ended up having to buy back most of the rr's back off of the privat giants who didn't feel it was profitable enough and so got rid of it. Government lost money. Privat sector lost money. Public did not recieve better service at any point. Privatization and compition does not always equal better.
