Virgin Trains East Coast

Today I attended Virgin’s Stakeholder meeting at York. Mainly about the exiting new Azuma Train to be introduced over the next couple of years but also I was pleased to hear Virgin are still working hard behind the scenes to get more weekend trains for Morpeth, to augment the already announced extra weekday trains from December 2016. I was also pleased to note that Virgin’s senior management team seem very aware of both SENRUG and myself and it does seem we come across to them as a respected campaign group.
