A new HQ is to be established for Great British Railways, it can be anywhere in UK
GBR will own the infrastructure, receive the fare revenue, run and plan the network and set most fares and timetables.   Where would be the best place for the new HQ  -  Assuming it hasn't already been decided, old cynic that I am 

Crewe  ?

Sodor... 

Now I know where that is without having to Google 

My guess would be not far from wherever all that crap is done currently to avoid paying a fortune in relocation. As an alternative guess Mumbai.

NOT LONDON!

erm....Doncaster

Gotta be in the north surely ?  Manchester even ! 

surely Stockton or Darlington!

My guess would Stoke on Trent which is an equal distance from many cities in the North.

In the future,  we will be sitting on the roof and holding onto the sides of trains Mumbai style the way our population is growing.

well, it's unlikely we will be able to afford tickets!

Stick the HQ at Downing street.. The way things are going that will become vacant very soon..

Some of our population have already got that ability in their genes.

Crewe seems a logical choice.

I guess that pretty much rules it out then.... 

Just about certainly!
