Virgin Rail's West Coast franchise continues
The government has confirmed that Virgin Rail will continue to run the West Coast main line for a further 23 months.
The new franchise for the line, which passes through Milton Keynes and Northampton, was awarded to First Group in August.
This decision was later scrapped due to flaws in the bidding process.
