The BBC reports: "The UK government has sold the London to Folkestone high speed rail link to a Canadian consortium for £2.1bn. The consortium will take over a 30 year lease on the track and stations." and "HS1, which cost more than £5bn to build, became fully operational in November 2007." http://tinyurl.com/2vcgxyn
Government spends £5billion building railway.
Government receives £2.1billion for the first 30 years of its operating life.
Right.
