Rail Services and Related Transport Matters: Statements.

 

I would appeal to him to take one lesson from the 1950s and 1960s, that is, to do nothing that is irreversible.

It is important that if there is a necessity, for financial reasons, to close, alter or suspend service, in all cases where it is possible it should be ensured that this is a reversible process.
