> as IIRC the French had recently when it turned out that the super new trains wouldn't be able to fit next to the platforms at a load of older stations.
So they made it through the provisioning process, did they make it all the way to a... test run? :)
Nahhh, it was a non-story actually. The company making the new trains had actually gone out and measured the stations before designing the trains. They had then notified the entity responsible for the stations, letting them know that the stations would need to be reworked. Work has actually already started on some stations, but is running behind schedule and not all stations will be ready when the resins come on line. This entity has tried to blame their scheduling mismanagement on the train manufacturer, but as there are written agreements to do the work on the stations, that dig won't hunt.
