    Thats probably a bit harsh Dave as someone from Dover had to take part in all those negotiations on the part of the town..to put the towns case as it were. Nigel Collor was transport guru at DDC and did indeed take part in all the discussions and did indeed put our case and as Ed said earlier..did become the face of the train. He got on well with the Transport Minister at the time Dr Stephen Ladyman which always helps in negotiation but of course isnt the deciding factor. But yes clearly others were involved and indeed Gwyn was too..lobbying at Westminster and so on. But a few faces led from the front, these guys mentioned above and Tim Ingleton too, who was the DDC officer concerned.

    Nigel is still a member here so hopefully he will contribute to this thread.

    As an aside..Ive had some statements in from him which I will put up on the frontpage when the space frees up.
