A Shropshire campaigner has said she is "ecstatic" by the news that plans to close railway station ticket offices have been scrapped.Transport Secretary Mark Harper said the Government has asked train operators to withdraw their proposals to close ticket offices, which were brought forward due to pressure from ministers to cut costs.
The 24-year-old said:"I am ecstatic to hear this. I think it was clear from day one that the public did not support these plans and it's thanks to the tireless work from campaigners up and down the country that this can be for the best for workers and customers. Ms McCleary said in a previous article that she frequently uses the trains and finds the help of ticket office staff invaluable.
"Two thousand jobs have been saved here and two thousand families have been saved from financial instability."A total of 750,000 responses were submitted to the consultation, watchdog Transport Focus said.
