Railways re-opening?

Interesting article in today's Daily Telegraph.

A  government inspired 'pigs might fly' article to deflect criticism of fare rises for commuters?

My current hobby-horse is for the Bedford-Northampton line to be re-opened and for Thameslink trains to be extended from Bedford to Birmingham or along the Trent Valley to Crewe.  Would take pressure of the West Coast route and for many, St Pancras/Kings Cross is a far better station than Euston for connections across London.
