I've heard it all now . Someone is willing to invest an immense amount of money to create the infrastructure for a whole railstation of the back of one air route serving 80 people a day? I mean it's total madness surely? Is it April fools again already? Even a shuttle bus being laid on for the 3 flights a day seems like overkill to me. Honestly i'm staggered . I think what sums it up is the picture chosen for Manston on Wiki is of a war memorial on a village green .
No - somebody wants to build a housing estate near the airport and to sweeten the deal they say they will build a railway station which will also serve the airport.
Local authority swoon...
