I'm not an expert on this and by the sounds of it you know lot more than me. I have only just joined the transport team.

As I understand it the trains are not nationally owned assets but leased. The TOC and rail network are.

You're absolutely right in another sense too. ECML is a complete change in policy by any party in 20 years and in a sense a new debate on future options has been opened up.
