Also HS2 isn't the end of it. Once completed we could build connections to those hubs, either high speed or normal speed, to further connect the country. Also people downplay the speed but it is important. Even 30 mins from Birmingham means a day trip to London takes an hour less. From Manchester it's a two hours less. If it goes up to Scotland then the benefits are greater still. It makes trips around the U.K in a day a lot more feasible.
