Rail firms causing chaos for Scots over holiday weekend will not share £25m compensation with delayed passengers
18.04.2022 - 06:49 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Rail firms causing chaos for Scots over the holiday weekend will take a share of £25million compensation for delayed works – but not pass it on to passengers.
West coast main line operator Avanti West Coast, whose route from Glasgow was hit, will be paid millions.
Network Rail will make the payments to cover lost ticket sales as its engineering schemes were to blame.
A total of £25million compensation is likely to be paid for Easter disruption across all Britain’s rail operators.
But rail firms will use a loophole to get out of paying the usual Delay Repay compensation to passengers.
Firms will say the delays were advertised in advance, meaning they are not covered by the usual rules.
Bruce Williamson, a spokesman for passenger campaign group Railfuture, said: “Passengers whose journeys are lengthened by engineering works would naturally think that some of the money should go to them.”
Avanti West Coast said: “Delay Repay is calculated against the planned timetable, which is published in advance.”
A Network Rail spokesman added: “With train operators predominantly run under direct Government contracts, the compensation goes to the taxpayer.”

Megan Fox: I Pre-Dated #MeToo and ‘Got Ridiculed’ for Calling Out Hollywood Misogyny
Zack Sharf Megan Fox spoke candidly to Glamour UK about the “ridicule” she endured after speaking out against Hollywood misogyny early in her career. The actor often spoke out about being objectified on Michael Bay sets, including one infamous “Jimmy Kimmel Live” interview where she called out how creepy it was to have to dance in a bikini under a waterfall at age 15 while shooting a small part in “Bad Boys II.” Fox said bringing attention to Hollywood misogyny long before the #MeToo movement only made her a bigger punchline.“I think that I was ahead of the #MeToo movement by almost a decade,” Fox said. “I was always speaking out against some of the abusive, misogynistic, patriarchal things that were going on in Hollywood back in 2008 and 2009, way before people were ready to embrace that or tolerate it.
