Yet more evidence of the damage that the chronic lack of post-2020 ambition for UK high speed rail is having on transport inequality: platform edge doors were a key accessibility opportunity that HS2 offered by operating a uniform fleet.
Now they've been abandoned.

1. Here's a fish swimming upstream. Nothing unusual about that.
What's unusual is that this particular fish is *dead*. Vortices in the water as it flows past the fish cause the fish's body to flex, maintaining orientation and actually propelling it forward.
