My question to the Prime Minister at PMQs today calling for the Great Eastern Mainline to be the pilot for the Digital Railway:
'I welcome the £450 million announced in the Autumn Statement to fund a pilot of the Digital Railway. Given the new fleet of trains on order and the opportunity for economic growth across the region, does the Prime Minister agree with me that the Great Eastern Mainline represents the most compelling case for this pilot.'
