Rejected petition Reconsider the removal of Virgin Trains from the West Coast Mainline

More details

Virgin Trains have helped to turn around the West Coast Mainline. The appointment of First with an unsustainable tender is doomed to failure. As a taxpayer I do not want to be bailing these out 18 months after they take over.
