Enquiry

Enquiry from Mark Redding by email on 14 November 2018:
Dear Sirs,
As you know the Rail Central application has been resubmitted and on the current timelines the registration period has the potential to clash with the Christmas holiday period. I would therefore ask whether it is possible to delay that registration period until the new year to give all those who wish to participate a fair chance to do so. December is a time when people are away or their minds are on other things. The Christmas of 2016 was completely ruined by the arrival of Rail Central on our radar so I would ask that we are at least given 2018 in relative peace before we have to recommence our fight in earnest.

Dear Mr Redding,
Thank you for your email. We do not control when the registration period begins or ends.
The applicant is required to publicise the acceptance of their application and set a deadline for registration. I suggest you contact them urgently, and make your request directly to them.
If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
