To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has had discussions with the Office of Rail and Road on Lumo’s application for a new direct rail service between Rochdale and London Euston.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has had discussions with the Office of Rail and Road on Lumo’s application for a new direct rail service between Rochdale and London Euston.
Under existing legislation, decisions on applications for track access rights are a matter for the Office of Rail and Road (ORR). This includes Lumo's application to operate direct services between Rochdale and London Euston.
The Secretary of State is unable to direct the ORR in the exercise of its statutory functions. As part of its regular engagement with the rail industry, the Department has discussions with the ORR on a range of relevant rail matters. However, responsibility for determining individual track access applications rests solely with the ORR.
That this House congratulates Lumo on the launch of its new direct service between Stirling and London Euston, with operations beginning on 25 May 2026; welcomes the significant improvement in rail connectivity linking communities across Scotland, the North West of England, the Midlands and London; notes that the service will call at Stirling, Larbert, Greenfaulds, Whifflet, Motherwell, Lockerbie, Carlisle, Preston, Crewe, Nuneaton, Milton Keynes and London Euston; recognises the economic, tourism and social benefits that improved direct rail links can bring to communities along the route; acknowledges the role of open access rail operators in increasing choice and encouraging more affordable and sustainable long distance travel; and believes that this new service will strengthen ties between communities across the route while ensuring Stirling takes its place on the departure boards of London Euston as a direct and accessible destination at the heart of Scotland.

Access to the rail network including decisions on Open Access applications is a matter for the Office of Rail and Road (ORR). When DfT provides views on individual applications as a key stakeholder, it does so with input from rail analytical and operational teams as required.
