Quote:
Virgin Trains will be asked to continue to run services on the West Coast Mainline for at least another nine months after the latest decision on the route franchise was scrapped.
The Department for Transport says it will enter into negotiations with Virgin for the "temporary" contract.
A competition will then be run for a new franchise agreement.
