Sat on a train just pulling into Peterborough. Wondering how come with all these commuters from Newark who pay over £8,000 for a season ticket, this franchise cannot make money? Answers on a postcard please.
Simple – £1.4 billion pounds that has to be paid back to the government.
I'm aware of what they signed up to when they bid for the franchise. Perhaps whoever was responsible so have done a few sums rather than picking a figure out of fresh air.
