- If a train service offers the best solution and has support from the rail industry, the local authority must then show that the rail scheme has a business case, secure the necessary start-up capital funding, (through sources such as the Regional Funding Allocation), and commit to funding the service for at least three years.
- “The availability of funding should provide the encouragement local authorities are looking for if they believe there’s a sound case based on passenger demand for improving a service or bringing in a new one.
