Virgin to run Wrexham to London train service
21/02/2008 by admin.
A second direct Wrexham-London rail service has been hailed as a huge boost for the town.
Virgin Trains planned to start a direct Wrexham-London rail service from December this year.
Speaking in the House of Commons at the first meeting of the All Party Group for Rail in Wales, Chris Gibb, Virgin’s chief operating officer, announced a return service would operate once a day - outward in the early morning and returning early evening. The journey time will be two-and-a-half hours.
The new service is targeted at Wrexham’s growing business community.
Initially it will be on a trial basis and if successful more services will be introduced on weekdays and weekends.
The Virgin service, via Chester, will compete with rival company Wrexham and Shropshire’s through services between Wrexham, Shropshire, the Black Country and London Marylebone this spring. They will be running five trains a day on weekdays, four on Saturdays and three on Sundays.
