Why doesn't the government make it a mandatory condition of all franchise agreements that TOC's accept each other's tickets for the same route - such as Birmingham to Euston or Stevenage to King's Cross?
It seems totally bizarre that LM passengers can be stranded at a station served by both LM and Virgin services to London with Virgin not allowing them to board their trains to complete their journey.
Is it fair that a FCC ticket holder at Stevenage seeing his intended service either seriously delayed or canceled should be excluded from East Coast services heading for the exact same destination?
