Old Oak Common Station

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether all trains on the Great Western Mainline will be required to call at the proposed Old Oak Common station.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

Future timetables for Great Western services will be continuously developed in the years to come, and timetable option assessment always evaluates the options for calling at Old Oak Common; but GWR trains will only stop there when there are good reasons for them to do so.
