Proceeding contribution from Paul Burstow (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 February 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on First Capital Connect.
First Capital Connect
It is not just that trains have been delivered late; they are not delivering the service they are meant to deliver. I gather that at the moment, First Capital Connect trains, the 377s, are breaking down after every 6,000 miles, compared with Southern, which runs the same trains and seems to keep them running for 22,000 miles before they break down. Surely that is another example of how incompetent the company is.
