Commenting on today’s (Thursday) publication of the root and branch review of the UK’s railways led by Keith Williams, TUC Yorkshire & Humber Regional Secretary Bill Adams said: 

"This is a missed opportunity to put passengers and staff at the heart of our region’s rail services. We should avoid any version of the failed privatisation model. We need Yorkshire’s railways fully back in public hands. If every penny from every fare goes back into the service, our railways will be better quality and better value.”
