TransPennine Express (TPE) is advising passengers to check their journeys ahead of the timetable change from Sunday 21 May.
Although there will be no major changes to services under the new timetable, some minor timing amendments will result in changes to train times for some passengers.
The new timetables are now available to view on TPE’s website.
The operator, which runs regional and inter-city rail services between the major cities and towns of Northern England and Scotland, will be brought under government control later this month.
Kathryn O’Brien, Customer Service and Operations Director at TransPennine Express, said:
“We are planning to make some minor changes to our current timetable next month and are encouraging customers to check their journeys taking place from 21 May onwards.“Our number one focus is providing the most reliable and punctual service possible for customers, and we continue to prioritise this following the recent disruption which has impacted some of those using our trains.“Our priority is delivering a train service people can depend on whether it’s getting them to work, school or an important appointment.”
Responses
When TPE lose the contract, is some of the senior management going to be out of a job? They should be, because I think a lot of people will hope they are Out. Management didn’t always know how to run a rail services.
