Labour is not happy about Avanti's new deal - which the opposition party argues 'rewards failure' - despite reassurances from the transport secretary that performance is improving thanks to a government plan which is 'working'.
Labour's shadow transport secretary, Louise Haigh, said the railways were"broken" under the Conservatives.
"If this is what success looks like to ministers, it shows that under the Conservatives our broken railways are here to stay. Avanti West Coast runs trains on the West Coast Main Line between London Euston and Glasgow Central, with branches to Birmingham, North Wales, Liverpool, Manchester and Edinburgh.This came after passengers suffered weeks of short-notice cancellations, partly due to a sharp decline in the number of drivers voluntarily working on rest days for extra pay.
