Actually not that surprising as Angel was (and as far as I know still is) owned by Royal Bank of Scotland, and HSBC Rail UK unsurprisingly by HSBC. See http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3894839.stm

Mind you why a bank would own a leasing company is a bit of a mystery, but I suppose that not that many people have 2 billion laying around to play with.

Also not too sure why this in the DCC section.

QUOTE (Doug @ 28 Oct 2008, 17:17) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Obviously the new Spanish owners of Abbey don't want to want the hassle of leasing trains in the UK.

Presumably because they get more publicity out of Formula 1
