I'm sorry guys. <br />I know that right now as your rail system is suffering, it sounds like a great idea to privatize...but really, honestly, it would only work for the really busy city centres. Trains need to run to the other areas too. If you take the only trains that make any money away frrom the government, you will not see things getting better, it will only get worse. Further more, Ed was right. passenger transpertation has never been profitable. Infact, even in the hay day of train travel, it was the fright train money that payed for the passenger rail. CN and CP owned the passenger system in Canada, and they NEVER made money on passengers. That's no great sales pitch to a privat company coming in to try and "rescue" the pax trains. <br />Sorry, I just don't see it being successful. <br />I use England as a wonderful exsample of how UNsuccessful privatzation of railroads can be. <br />Let the government take care of it. It's the only way to keep it.
