Repairiamos!

It's not the fucking harry potter viaduct, it was iconic before potter you moron, it's the Glenfinnan viaduct plain and simple

Yeah upgrade the viaduct, meanwhile the homeless sleeping on the streets, or put more police on the streets too, should be better than that...

For goodness sake please stop the harrypotterfication of everything possible. This is an iconic piece of railway infrastructure; and it was for about 100 years before those dreadful books were published.

Fantastic initiative, which will attract thousands of additional Chinese Tourists to GreatBritain

If you got Harry to pay for it why not 2.4 million.
