Can someone explain please how electricity costs are met by passenger TOCs? Are they even accounted for separately? And will be classes 93 and 99 now being built be more energy-efficient? And do Section 8 rail freight grants still exist? Presumably these are/were for capital expenditure only and not to help with things like electricity costs.Yes.
So maybe now the psudogoverment that is Network Rail will listen to the FoCs and make it financially viable to run electric trains, or perhaps someone will step up and rebate running electrics against their cost to try and prevent burning so much oil.
