Train services run by TransPennine Express will be nationalised after months of delays and cancellations.
Transport Secretary Mark Harper announced the decision to bring the operator’s services under Government control, but warned it is “not a silver bullet”.
The Department for Transport said services will be brought under its Operator of Last Resort from May 28. Mr Harper said: “In my time as Transport Secretary, I have been clear that passenger experience must always come first. The union’s general secretary Mick Whelan accused Mr Harper of “trying to blame Aslef – rather than the company’s inept management – for its many problems”.
