BREAKFAST SERVICE ON FIRST GREAT WESTERN TRAINS

Tabled by John McDonnell (Labour) 19 signatures

The motion

That this House notes that the 05.46 am Exeter St Davids to London Paddington service currently provides travelling chef breakfast facilities to passengers; is concerned that First Great Western is too often using rolling stock with inadequate kitchen facilities and/or kitchens that are not regularly maintained, leading to breakfast services being run down and too often unavailable; recognises that the travelling chef facility is highly valued by passengers who not unreasonably expect that in return for their very early start to the day and ever increasing fares they should be able to enjoy breakfast on the train; and therefore calls on the company to ensure the future of the travelling chef serviceon the 05.46 am Exeter St Davids to Paddington service and on all other services the facility currently operates on across the whole of the First Great Western franchise.
