Mike, the Waterloo Tunnel ends right smack in the middle of the Liverpool Waters complex at Central Docks. This will need rapid transport out of the city. Also areas like Byron ST and London Rd are served well and the word "re-generation" always comes up. A prime aim is to get these areas up and running, prosperous and populated. A Station into an integrated rail system will clearly work for these areas. It is the future that counts. People tend to be locked into the present.
