Transport Secretary Grant Shapps has come under fire for being apparently unaware of how many Manchester-to-London trains are currently running.
Mr Shapps told Mr Stayt: "You've incorrectly told your viewers there's only one train running from Manchester to London - that's not the case."
Mr Shapps continued: "Well, all I can tell you is that there are still trains running down the West Coast mainline."
