BOOK A SEAT AS BRITAIN'S GREAT RAILWAY GETAWAY BEGINS!
With just a week to go until Christmas, Britain's railway is gearing up for a major getaway. In the next seven days 22 million passengers are expected to take the train - the same number of travellers who used Manchester Airport in the whole of 2007. Michael Roberts, Chief Executive of ATOC, said, There are more trains to carry more passengers this Christmas with more Advance purchase tickets available than in 2007. The new timetable which started on Sunday has created almost 700 extra train services each day and with a smaller Christmas engineering programme than in previous years more trains will be running. If you haven't already, we advise our passengers to book ahead and reserve seats wherever possible as there are still many discounted advanced purchase tickets available. But they will be snapped up the closer to Christmas we get.
