I suspect the product and market is so niche that you are unlikely to get that scenario. Developing, testing and certifying a product like that won't be a quick or cheap process.

One of the FAEs I work with actually came to the particular supplier from Hannover. It's something that in an ideal world I'd love to have a crack at, but it's much nicer having someone else worrying about the admin and sales side of things.

Happened quite a lot in the railway industry.

The indigo is looking a bit grim this morning. Demolition works have brought Nottingham city centre to a standstill and currently every bus tracking on the indigo is clustered at the Nottingham end of the route. Between Beeston and Derby there's nothing.

Seems like chaos again this time it's Long Eaton, bustimes.org shows 7 indigo buses Nottingham bound stuck in Long Eaton with one running nearly 2 hours late.

The roads in Long Eaton are absolute chaos. My wife has abandonded the bus to walk to her doctors appointment. The council in their wisdom have got major roadworks as part of levelling up. Well its working nobody can get anywhere and everyone is late. 10 million well spent so far

Trentbarton said My15 was diverting to Long Eaton railway station. The next thing was an accident on Wilsthorpe island, creating more chaos.

It's going to be extra fun for the skylink Notts and my15 drivers (well, any drivers really) when they put the temporary lights on Harrington Bridge near the marina... you may as well walk from Castle Donington to Long Eaton at this rate

Surely it will be time to divert via the M1 as happens when the Trent floods. These roadworks throughout Trentbartons operating area must be costing the company a fortune. Is compensation available?

Must be doing the same to distribution companies too...

I think luckily for the distribution depots at Sawley roundabout and castle donnington they use the A50 for access as Sawley station bridge prevents access to Long Eaton and its travel mayhem

But the likes of Asda and Tesco and similar, get regular timed deliveries.. One gets that work has to take place, but you'd think there would be a guiding mind that would avoid such chaos.
