The 07:47 train from Wrexham to Birmingham has been
left out of a draft timetable for May published online, according to the
Shrewsbury to Chester Rail Users Association (SCRUA).
If the service is axed commuters face waits of half
an hour for a connection at Shrewsbury, the group said.
Arriva Trains Wales has said "nothing has been
finalised" on their May timetable.
Ken Skates said:
“I have made repeated representations over this issue as the axing of the
service would cause major inconvenience to many of my constituents who use
Chirk and Ruabon stations, as well as Wrexham.
“I have written
to Arriva Trains Wales and have also relayed concerns to Welsh Government
Transport Minister Edwina Hart, who recognises the importance of rail travel in
North Wales and the border areas.
“I will continue
to fight for the best service provision possible for my constituents.”
