Avanti West Coast says it is reducing services from 9-31 December on the West Coast Main Line.
Rail union Aslef has criticised a reduction in services over Christmas by operator Avanti West Coast.
The union said the company had given a "nonsense" explanation about pressures created by staff taking annual leave and called Avanti "irresponsible".The company would only say the reduced services from 9-31 December would "minimise unplanned, short-notice cancellations".Aslef general secretary Mick Whelan described the move as "shameful" and a disappointment.
He said cutting services over the festive period is a "shameful gift to give passengers this Christmas". Mr Whelan also said: "Not employing enough drivers to deliver the services it has promised passengers - and the government - it will run has left crucial services understaffed and undervalued."
