The problem is STN is in the middle of nowhere. I moved here and am aware of cost of commute. Passengers are coming from/ to London, they will pay premium fares etc but if you work here its a different story.

How can an employee be expected to pay daily rates to commute from outskirts of London.

Wage rates in the industry are lamentable !

There are simply no large cities within easy commute with sufficient size workforce to fill these jobs.
