Mr Prosser should cut the propaganda and reflect a bit more on the facts

Have your say!


Dear Editor,

Re: MP calls for dropping a Folkestone stop on domestic high speed rail service
I don't suppose that I really have to remind many people that in the 60s the service from this area was already good.

Ashford to Charing Cross was an hour (almost exactly) with Folkestone/Charing Cross at 75 minutes.

What price progress then?

I think Mr Prosser should cut the propaganda and reflect a bit more on the facts, which include the cutting of "ordinary" services to make way for this - much more expensive route - which is ultimately only going to appeal to the wealthy and those travelling on generous expenses (MPs maybe?).

Yours sincerely,

A C Reynolds
