Urgent improvement call for ScotRail, Network Rail [Scotsman]





Date: 29/11/2013

Ministers have told Network Rail and ScotRail their performance is unacceptable and must urgently improve, The Scotsman has learned.
News of the dressing down to the track firm and Scotland^s main train operator came as rail regulators today also criticised their record.
The Office of Rail Regulation said train delays caused by Network Rail had got worse, with track problems forcing speed restrictions, especially on the Stirling-Alloa line and routes north of Inverness.
It also said passenger hold-ups caused by ScotRail were 22 per cent worse than target, mainly caused by train faults.
