Rejected petition Enquiry why Thameslink East Mids Trains start new timetable and no trains to run
20th May saw a new timetable between Bedford Luton and London. Why did this go ahead knowing trains couldn’t operate the full new timetable, now passengers face mass cancellations and travel chaos. Bring back TL rail and East Mids Trains to public ownership to end chaos and a timetable that works
More details
25th May saw 39 cancelled services serving between Bedford and London.
Today 29th May already at writing Thameslink are showing 20 cancellations during the day.
