Trains (again)

Started by: ena malcup (4151) 

Hot on the heels of HS2 cancellation.

Transpennine Manchester-Leeds trains to be reduced by 25%, and journey time increased.

Manchester-London, similar, though figures not given.(other than Saturdays that will see 33% reduction.)

These reductions said to be for one year to improve reliability.

(It does create some headroom so that future bogus claims of improvement can be made: we will get back to what pertains at present, and be told it is the improvement brought instead of HS2!)

I wonder if Sinak will attend that garden party once again, and brag about how much he has diverted spending from the North to favour wealthy Home County areas.

Freudian Slip methinks.

Sunak (mea culpa)

I thought the Transpennine Express service was from Liverpool?
