This gets passengers to complain very much (7)

I believe the answer is:

railway

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'this gets passengers' is the definition.
(a railway line transports passengers)

'complain very much' is the wordplay.
'complain very' becomes 'rail' (railing is a kind of complaining. I am not sure about the 'very' bit.).
'much' becomes 'way' (I've seen this in another clue).
'rail'+'way'='RAILWAY'

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for railway that I've seen before include "Train track" , "Parallel lines" , "Track for locomotives" , "Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch, for example" , "Track system" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
