After all the huff on here about Arriva Trains being german owned and the profits going back to Germany etc. Eric Cartman was one of the main proponents of an in house WAG train service. And I agreed with him - lets give it a go and see how we in Wales get on, with a WAG operated / controlled rail service.

Im guessing the WAG didnt fancy it - so we will never know.

What we do know is that a privately owned Network Rail are cr@p and also a Re Nationalised Network Rail is cr@p.
So what's the answer ?
Was I?

I don't live in Wales and never have and don't really have any idea what the train network is like. I don't have the best memory but I don't think I have ever said much about it.
