Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport – in the Senedd at 1:39 pm on 28 November 2018.
Diolch yn fawr.
I'm sure you don't need me to update you on the situation on the railways in Wales this morning, but I'll run through some of the latest problems of Transport for Wales lines: Aberystwyth to Shrewsbury trains cancelled again; Blaenau Ffestiniog to Llandudno, all trains replaced by a bus; Wrexham Central to Bidston, services affected; Swansea services to Pembroke Dock, Milford Haven and Fishguard disrupted; continued reduced services on Cardiff-Valleys lines, and so on. It's not acceptable. The first words on the statement on the front page of the Transport for Wales rail website today is, 'We apologise'. We still haven't heard that from Government. Would you like to take that opportunity now?
