There is no greater symbol of London's inabilty to "Get with it" than the freight trains that run through the centre of our city. The CP rail line should be rerouted around the city and replaced by an elevated monorail running from the Hyde Park area to the airport with a downtown station at the Selby building on Richmond Street. This would provide an east/west transit corridor that could also include walking and bike paths. The next time you are stuck in traffic waiting for a train just visualize a sleek vehicle gliding above the freight with tourists waving and commuters texting.
