The Luton Dart is not the only railway to be causing concern in Bedfordshire because of cost (Luton Dart: ‘the most expensive train in Britain’ opens for business, 3 March). In the north of the county, we are faced with East West Rail (EWR).
The current proposed route went from one of the most expensive possibilities to one of the cheapest. This difference is yet to be explained properly. In addition, many people did not know about this project until compulsory purchase notices were delivered.
