The trains(mentions trains) are hampered by rules designed to create competition where there shouldn't be any competition. That kind of thing really irritates me. 'Ooh, these people all offer the same service, and by rights there should only be one company offering it, but that would be a monopoly and we know monopolies are bad, don't we children, so let's force them to work seperately and then they'll lower their prices, just like competition in the real world.'
Trains compete against other transport services, in reality. Possibly this means there shouldn't be any trains, or possibly if there was only one train company (or two) it would be a success. But making a pretence of a competetive market where there's no reason for one is just naive.
