The only real crunch point is if the new timetables in 2018 prove to be
a complete disaster and then there will be monumental pressure GTR and
DfT to "do something". Until then I think GTR will be left to get on
with it.


And won't that be Network Rail's fault, rather than the train
operators?


I am shocked to find that GTR (and other TOCs) have timetablers and so do
Network Rail. Sounds like a recipe for cock-ups to me. See the shambles over
Cambridge North's peak service that has come to light from an informed
source this weekend.
