Rail versus car at airports

Re: axing of EMA parkway bus service.

An ongoing dilemma for airport operators - onsite or nearby rail station potentially increases your passenger catchment, but car parking can produce lots of additional income. So the investment in, or subsidy of, rail is not a straightforward choice. MAG has same issue at its main site - MAN, but sees volume growth there for both the on-site rail station (+ tram) and its self-operated car parks business.
