From de comments, a solution that would NOT have paid AN AWFUL LOT OF people A LOT of cash. John Burns London, United Kingdom 2 hours ago Remove the bottlenecks on the WCML, build the WCML Stafford bypass, make it 4 track from Winsford to Weaver junction and make all trains run at 140mh.

Upgrading the Chiltern Line put the Birmingham trains back on that line releasing capacity on the WCML. All is there, without batcaves.
