A very interesting session to watch and learn with perhaps 60 or 70 people.



and thanks to Bristol Cable for organising it.  Good to see a far wider profile of age, gender and background than is typical at rail meetings, but it really wasn't about rail - so much of it came down to buses and perhaps anti-car, and people's frustrations at the current system and a desire for it not to be run by private companies.   Not sure what if any outcomes and next stages there are - though from Bristol Cable's viewpoint a good set of stories and onward active supporters.
