Station groups are literally stations grouped together for ticketing
purposes - London Terminals, Catford Stations etc.
"Edinburgh BR" will be the old name for "Edinburgh Stations" when good
old bad old BR was still about, and it does include Haymarket and
Waverley - for whatever reason the spreadsheet doesn't spell out all

All the objections you're raising are non-economic;
safety is certainly not an issue. Abolishing fares would generate
massive increases in wealth for all concerned. Also check out the
bigger picture:

Firstly, please have the good grace not to trim posts so hard that i have
to wade through google groups to find out what was actually written.
Secondly, i hardly call it 'demolished' - for those interested in reading

Mind you, selecting Arriva to run cross country wasn't the brightest of
moves, unless profit was the only consideration.
And, of course, it was.
I like the G&S quote in the article:

I was expecting it to be terrible at Thornton Heath too. I'd tried to
buy my ticket the previous day, but got there too late and the ticket

But no, there was no queue at all when I got there just before 9.
