Chiltern Railways: Overcrowding
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she is taking with Chiltern Railways to help prevent overcrowding.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
Chiltern Railways periodically adjust their timetable in response to passenger demand. From the 18th May, Chiltern will introduce three new Saturday services between Banbury and London Marylebone.
We are engaging closely with Chiltern's fleet renewal programme seeking to procure additional trains to increase capacity, whilst ensuring it delivers value for money.
