The 12.44 Crewe To London Virgin Train
EDM number 1612 in 2007-08, proposed by Lembit Opik on 19/05/2008.
Categorised under the topic of Railways.
That this House is appalled by the unreliable performance of the 12.44 Virgin Train service on 19th May from Crewe to London; condemns the failure of Virgin staff to warn customers of a potential delay prior to the departure of the train; rejects the notion that a signal failure exonerates them from responsibility to their customers; notes that this train was packed with hon. Members, Ministers and at least one Cabinet Minister; and believes that whoever wins the Crewe and Nantwich by-election, they will not have been assisted by Virgin Trains.
This motion has been signed by a total of 8 MPs.
