One thing announcing them, but will they actually run and not be cancelled?
A guess, of course. But given the new government’s plans to end many rail franchise contracts over the first parliament.
Plus recent news that one co-op has been green-lighted. While loads more have been allowed into the bidding process.
This is likely just a desperate attempt to continue existing as a franchise whenever the current one expires.
