No trains, late trains and cancelled trains. The British commuter is prepared to put up with a lot. Then the government said we’ll cancel your wifi. That has proved to be a signal passed at danger for the travelling public. A radical cost cutting programme has hinted that trains in England could lose wifi provision because the Department for Transport says wifi is a low-priority for passengers, and it wants to deliver the best possible value for money on the tracks. That may be a huge misjudgement, and the ministers in Westminster may be forced to make that most awkward of manoeuvres – a railway u-turn.
