Well worth a listen as are the other episodes so far Link to YouTube https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CZ79XJNB_fQ. Title: Re: Railway Podcast Green Signals with Nigel Harris . Post by: bradshaw on November 09, 2023, 08:25:27 I would agree, they are very informative. Last week covered the Ticket Office shambles with Mark Smith - The Man in Seat 61.
Both Nigel Harris and Richard Bowker gave evidence to the Transport Select Committee yesterday being invited after their episode on HS2. This is also worth a watch but is 2.5 hours long. https://www.parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/c744b3ff-613e-42f9-8476-f79d7415678b Title: Re: Railway Podcast Green Signals with Nigel Harris . Post by: Mark A on November 09, 2023, 09:26:55 The Green Signals Mark Hopward interview with Richard Bowker and Nigel Harris, he talks about the growth in so-called leisure travel and does he immediately flag that he's constrained from making business decisions to introduce new services to take advantage of this?
In any case, Mark Hopwood immediately flags Bristol to Oxford direct services as being the sort of move he'd like to take - especially given that East West Rail's well on the way - but then points out to him that it was Richard Bowker that required that GWR cease running it.
