The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the average percentage of scheduled train miles operated was for each railway franchise in each of the last ten years.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

Statistics on the number of train services run are published by the ORR - https://dataportal.orr.gov.uk/statistics/performance/passenger-rail-performance/. Table 3123 – ‘Trains planned and cancellations by operator and cause’ shows the average percentage of scheduled trains that did not run.
