Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Harris of Haringey (Labour). It was answered on Wednesday, 4 December 2013.
Railways: Rolling Stock
- Question
-
My Lords, the Minister was asked why the train operators cannot put on extra carriages. Can he explain how his answer addressed that question?
- Answer
-
I thought that I did address it: we have a shortage of carriages. The only way to address that is by buying new ones and many are on order. However, electrification will obviously help the capacity issue.
