REGARDING the new trains on Glasgow’s Subway (page 83, February), why on earth are we buying new trains at a cost of many millions of pounds only to have the Project Director state that“it would take time to achieve full reliability”and then have to have two trains following each other in case one breaks down.
How much lower can we sink in accepting such rubbish from the train makers and those responsible for the running of the fleet? It reminds me of a previous Scottish fiasco that was the production of the Hillman Imp in the 1960s:‘Buy an Imp – the walk will do you good!’
