Petition Action

Reconsider the WCML Franchise

Additional Information

The West Coast Mainline is currently run by Virgin Trains and, for the majority of passengers, is running the best it has ever run. The recent awarding of the franchise to FirstGroup is based on a bid which certainly looks very difficult for them to achieve.

On behalf of all rail customers who use the UK's busiest rail route, please reconsider all the bids and properly assess whether the First Group bid is realistic or whether it will let the British taxpayer down, much like the ECML under National Express and GNER.
