Have More Blackpool North to London Euston Services

The Issue

Blackpool is one of the most popular Tourist Attractions in the UK and I believe that there should more Virgin Trains services between Blackpool North and London Euston. The reason why I think this should happen is because it would invest more money into the local economy and the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) for Blackpool and the Fylde. It would also attract more Holiday Makers into the town and the area. It would be good as well for the local Travel and Tourism Industry in Blackpool and it will be a benefit for local passengers as they won't have to change at Preston. Since Monday 15th December 2014 there has just one train going each way on a Monday to Friday at 05:25 from Blackpool North in the morning and 16:33 from London Euston in the afternoon. I believe that this is not good enough for passagers and I believe that it should a regular service seven days a week like the Holyhead/Shrewsbury to London Euston Lines. It should also be at a flexible advance fare for customers. Think if you wanted to go to London or Blackpool for the day or for a short break then just think how good it would be that you could arrive awesome without having to change trains or change seats. IF YOU WANT WHATS BEST FOR BLACKPOOL AND THE FYLDE THEN SIGN THIS PETITION AS THIS WOULD BE A BOOST FOR YOUR LOCAL TOWN AND YOUR LOCAL RAIL NETWORK IN WEST LANCASHIRE!!
