Network Rail has 'vetoed' a train service (two an hour on the Mid Cheshire) that was promised to the public in the Invitation to Tender for the franchise - it's part of the Minimum Service Requirement. They say they are becoming more passenger focussed. No they aren't. If they want to believe that, then it's time they started listening to passengers, otherwise heads will have to roll. In this example, and there are others, Network Rail are undermining what the DfT and politicians have promised the public. I can't see them getting away with that for long before the politicians act to 'reorganise' NR and the senior managers get shoved out. Good riddance to the buggers.
