Railway for sale: Letter
Sir: You report ("Row over Railtrack's 'lost millions' ", 30 April) that Railtrack may need pounds 11bn spent on tunnels and bridge repairs over the next 10 years. Buying shares in Railtrack is a bit like buying a second- hand car off Arthur Daley, except that the scale is more grandiose.
