Look back to the birth of HS1 and find the seed corn for HS2

• TIM Stockton of NW5 asks in his April 18 letter for an independent investigation of the entire HS2 debacle, (HS2 debacle needs an inquiry).

For the entire HS2 debacle?

Well, one will need to go back to the birth of HS1 and find the seed corn for that scheme.

How did it sprout?

Once we understand this we will recognise that the HS2 scheme is just a copy of it but with different partners – who is in and who is out!
