That is the question of the age.

A longer answer will follow shortly.

In the particular case of the rail franchise I think the business they were actually in was active counter-party for a series of geographically spread rail operations, rather than the business I think they thought they were in, which was the occassional letter of rail franchises and receiver of rents.

If I may draw an analogy, they thought they were letting a number of small flats on long leases, what they were actually doing was running a small hotel.
