Grimsby MP Lia Nici laid blame on a train drivers' union
A train drivers’ union has rubbished claims from the Grimsby MP that strike action is behind TransPenine Express’ poor performance.
Northern Lincolnshire MPs have also been quick to cite strike action from ASLEF, the union representing 96% of the country’s train drivers, as a large factor behind the demise of TransPennine Express. “This is not the case for other local services out of Grimsby, such as East Midlands Railway, showing that effective train companies can offer a good service.
ASLEF disputed the criticise from MPs and Transport Secretary Mark Harper, who said that the union’s actions are “preventing TransPennine Express from being able to run a full service.” “That’s what we have made clear over the years – that’s what we have done – and now the company has paid the price.
