answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/06/2017 answer text <p>It is up to the Rail Industry to deliver a timetable that provides passengers with the performance they expect, whilst maintaining safety. Peak services are timetabled to ensure there is sufficient gap between trains to allow passengers to clear platforms and concourse. Note that due to the track and platform layout at Victoria, there is a limit to the number of trains that can arrive in a short space of time at platforms 15-19.</p> answering member constituency Blackpool North and Cleveleys answering member printed Paul Maynard question first answered 27/06/2017 12:51:11 answering member 3926 label Biography information for Paul Maynard
