There was a small item in last weekend's Sunday Herald business pages about the Scottish government abandoning a decades-old fund that provided money to companies to build rail depots next to their factories.
For the incredibly small amount of £7million a year, the government were able to offer these "Freight Facilities Grants" in order to take hundreds of lorries off the roads.
This is a short post because I really can't say anything about this better than Paul at Set In Darkness. I would urge you to go and read the short blog post there, and then shake your head at the madness.
