That's not the point I was making though. Both customers and operators are looking after their own interests, with neither wanting to make the first move. Customers don't want the inconvenience of having to travel from A to B via C (and sometimes D), and operators don't want to take a commercial risk to start new services off willy nilly. You can understand both points of view, hence the deadlock situation. I don't like capitalism as much as the next 'lefty', but that's reality.
It's going to take someone to force change to happen, hence my stance on other 'subjects'.
