Although, a shame that passengers won't get to see anything out their windows!

Change the CD fellah as its getting rathe boring now. You peddle the same old copy / pasted nonsence on every HS2 video and yet you never offer any solid facts or argument. Just emotional claptrap. But I bet you were never concerned when the M40 and other motorways were carving out routes on the countryside.

@@1chish .. "cd"? .. "fellah"? .. haha, talk about living in the past 😉 Yet another HS2 fanboy who can't come to terms with the truth. Most of your beloved project has been scrapped & what's left is nothing more than a shuttle route between west London & Birmingham that only the elite will use. And don't forget the blatant corruption within HS2 Ltd that's recently been exposed. Senior executives shredded documents & used misleading projections to ensure billions kept flowing into the project. Employees claim they were told by bosses to lie about the project’s cost & were sacked after speaking out. They say the government wasn't informed of the real cost of HS2 for years, all while voting on laws that approved its construction. It's nothing more than a monstrous white elephant that 85% of the public are against. HS2 Ltd state that to "break even" with a subsidy of 50/60% , they require 600,000 passengers travelling between London & Birmingham DAILY. Given that passenger numbers on that route have been declining by 4% per year for the last decade & now stand at an average of 96,000 per day, perhaps you'd care to explain where the extra 504,000 are going to materialise from? The public have been lied to from day one of this disastrous project & the sooner it's consigned to the history books, the better

They are not going to leave it like that. It's what they call landscaping. Think about it CRIMSONANTI

Is that you again, Lord Adonis?

@@DaveFiggley Lord Adonis & other high-ranking politicians like him promised us a world-class railway but have left us with a world class hole in the ground - the size of Trafalgar Square - at Euston, that's likely to be left for developers to squabble over. What's left of this disastrous vanity project is nothing more than a shuttle service between west London & Birmingham. HS2 has been an appalling misuse of public funds & yet the Conservatives continue to pass it off as essential for modern Britain. Having a faster railway with more capacity, doesn’t prepare us for the future, it just delivers the present, but 40 years too late 😉
