The deal to hand the West Coast Main Line rail franchise to First Group is to be delayed following a legal challenge by current operator Virgin.
Virgin launched the challenge last week after losing its attempt to continue operating the route.
Ministers were expected to sign the deal with First Group several days ago.
But they have confirmed due to the legal challenge the contract has not been signed and "the competition remains live".
