Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 25 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Railways: Investment.


Railways: Investment

My Lords, I am aware of the problem of London’s cast-offs, as the noble Lord put it. However, it is a sensible way of extracting all the capital value from the rolling stock. The noble Lord asked about the Todmorden curve. This was raised by a right reverend Prelate the last time I was asked a question on the railways in the north-west. It amused the House that I knew the answer. The snag is that I have forgotten that answer but I assure noble Lords that it remains the same.
