To get nice new/modern trains would involve widening our tracks and updating the infrastructure. Where I live in the (flat) country who gives a shit - it’s all just land banking farms anyway, but near towns and cities it’s going to involve a huge amount of, at best disruption and and worst the massive displacement of the population who have homes that back onto rail lines.
Also we’d need all new bridges, tunnels, etc.
And we’re currently broke as fuck because all the rail operators have been siphoning profit to foreign governments shareholders since we privatised the fuck out of the country.
There’s not much that will kill you in the UK but there’s a lot that will make you want to die.
