Agree, there's a few issues at LBA itself to shoehorn 6 or 9 million a year in rather than the current 3 million. But even supposing the investment went in to permit that and even if the market was there, we are talking about 20 to 30 thousand a day from a core catchment area in a 20 mile radius. Let's suppose rail could capture 10% of the market --optimistic. That's 2,000 to 3,000 a day. You won't justify a £100million scheme plus the operating costs on the back of that.
The nearest practical point on the railway is Horsforth. Maybe a bus from there to provide an alternative to the crawl in the 757 would be a positive immediate practical development.
Of course if Bridgepoint have a spare £100 mill that would be different.
