Ministers regularly excoriate TOCs and NR for late running so how is DafTs own record at delivering to passengers?
This from a distinctly optimistic DafT press release issued on the 21st December last year:
Invitation to tender issued for 200 new diesel train carriages... Closing date for bids is 16th February and it is anticipated that an announcement on the preferred bidder will be made in April.
It is now May.
When can we expect DafT to apologise for the delay, explain the reason and hand out passenger compensation forms?
