The trains are meant to be hourly, but in recent weeks they had four hour gaps
Cleethorpes MP Martin Vickers has called for the “absolutely appalling” Cleethorpes to Manchester train service to be withdrawn from Trans Pennine Express after complaints of delays.
Martin Vickers stated that he would continue to press the provider to meet its service obligations, while also meeting with the rail minister to discuss his proposals for withdrawing the franchise.Mr Vickers said: “The service should be hourly, but cancellations frequently stretch that to three or four hours. Staff at Grimsby Town station told me of one recent occasion of six hours without a train. That is quite simply not good enough.
It was withdrawn by British Rail in 1992, but from May 2023 it has been planned by rail provider London North Eastern Railway to bring the service back.
