The article noted there was no payment of “break fees” but there was no actual detail provided of the financials whatsoever?

I wonder why (if there was no cost to the public?)

WA looking at something similar for privatised regional rail.

The reversal of privatisations is something that has been happening quietly across all Australian jurisdictions & it has happened more frequently over the past few years

Nice. No essential infrastructure should be in private hands
