Paul Plummer, chief executive of the Rail Delivery Group which represents train operators and Network Rail, said:

“The rail industry is actively engaged in the debate over how to harness the best aspects of competition to deliver even better services. We will continue to work with governments and the regulator to balance the opportunities for more competition in rail with the wider complexities and practical challenges of running this vital public service.

"It is important that everyone is clear about what the nation wants from the railway and how we can best achieve this. We must take a joined-up and consistent approach to competition, freight, franchising, regulation, capacity, the shape of Network Rail and how we fund much needed investment. Considering these in isolation is unlikely to deliver the best results for customers, freight users or taxpayers."
