Obviously the VT blockade buster route between Euston and Nuneaton isn't an option this weekend, but is there an operational reason (as opposed to a commercial one) why VT couldn't run a shuttle using some of its Voyagers between STP and NUN via the Wigston curve?
Platform lengths at STP would mean restricting then to 10 cars, and only one platform could be made available, but I would have thought an hourly shuttle would have been a better option than sending everyone to/from the NW across the Pennines?
Am I missing something very obvious?
PS Mods please move this to a different forum if need be. And apols if this has been asked before and I've missed it.
