The comments made by James Wild, the Conservative MP for North West Norfolk, on 28 June 2026.
4 hours and 20 mins and 3 changes with rail replacement services for a journey that should take 1 hr 45 on a train.
Another weekend of poor service from the now state controlled Great Northern which causes huge inconvenience to passgeners and damages the economy.
Passengers should be offered discounted tickets when there are rail replacement and much longer journey times.
The government now controls the track and the trains and so I urged the Tranapoet Secretary to provide discounts. She declined.
I will be taking this up with Great Northern when I meet them again shortly, as well as the continued unreliable service and cancelled trains
