<text>leave out from `step;' to end and add `notes particularly the loss of through routes available to people wishing to travel between Scotland, the North West of England and the far South West and that passengers will now face a required change of service at either Birmingham New Street or Manchester, risking a modal shift from rail to either car or air; calls on the Government to ensure that the new rail franchise will allow direct services between Scotland and the whole of the South of England, including the South West.'.</text>
