This is legit the picture they’ve got on their site trying to sell it.
I’m going to guess it ends up being an ASDA warehouse or something.
Edit: I forgot HS2 was supposed to stop right next to it, before it was cancelled. It might have been worth something then. But now it’s just some coal dust polluted land. I’m guessing they’re not going to be allowed to sell it for housing due to that.
Given HS2 has already cost more than most European countries spend doing entire network expansions I’m pretty sure it was a massive success for its intended purpose.
Yeh but its like an order of a magnitude of difference, we’re spending more than its costing Italy to build a subway through rome which requires a full on archiological dig every 20 feet.
