@AvantiWestCoast I am on the late running 16:40 from Glasgow central to Euston. We left 20 mins late and have now been stopped for 40 mins apparently due to a power failure in the overhead lines. Any news on progress dealing with this please?

The post-war New Towns programme was the most ambitious town-building effort ever undertaken in the UK.
We begin work today on bringing forward the next generation of new towns.
Really pleased Sir Michael Lyons will chair our expert taskforce.
