Here here! A single regulated national railway to Sydney is all we will ever need. Legislate those pesky airlines and roads out of existence, put in non-complete clauses so no-one can ever build anything else ever again, and we can all live in a prescribed governmental nirvana, its a model that's been proven to work again and again.

It is the last place competition makes sense. Should we also have 4 providers of railway lines to Sydney? or 3 driveways into your house?

A national provider, under regulation, makes the most sense for Australia. Competition is not right cure for all problems.
