Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Severe Winter Weather.
Severe Winter Weather
I am happy to join my hon. Friend in congratulating staff across the railways. They have been operating in extremely difficult conditions, and I have seen for myself something of a blitz spirit where people have been mucking in. Some of the old divisions between Network Rail and train operators seem to have melted away under the weight of the snow—if that is the right way to put it. Railway staff put in a fantastic performance over the weekend to get the railways operating normally—by and large—this morning.
