High speed train to depart Salisbury

A TRAIN capable of running at speeds of up to 90mph is to carry passengers from Salisbury to Liverpool to see a gathering of 100 tall ships on the Mersey.

The privately operated train will leave, bound for the European City of Culture on July 21.

Richard Szwejkowski, train manager for trip organiser Pathfinder Tours, said: "It will be an unique occasion. Not only will passengers be able to see a great gathering of ships, they will have time to visit the rejuvenated Royal Liverbird water front and the Beatles museum."

What strange reporting - is something missing from this article? Why is 90mph seen as fast for a train when 125 mph trains have been running for years?

In fact why is a day out in Liverpool by train newsworthy at all?

Confused??
