Absolutely. Trains, trams etc are all intrinsic to the success of MAN, for which this thread is about. Also, whether we agree with bagso or not, the promotion of inbound tourism also affects, you've guessed it, MAN. With that in mind I think you should perhaps rethink your stance as, in my opinion, the discussion is largely linked to the subject in hand... I.e Manchester Airport. I usually agree or sympathise with the views of Mods (even if it doesn't always come across very well) but I do think you are being a bit hasty and seeing the debate out of context.
